Statement from the Minister for Justice and Home Affairs, Deputy Mary Le Hegarat:
“Today’s sentencing by the Royal Court is a powerful reminder
that breaches of Jersey’s immigration legislation will not be
tolerated.
"I would like to acknowledge the hard work of the Jersey
Customs and Immigration officers involved in this detailed
investigation, which is the first case of this nature to be brought
before the Jersey Courts, by the Jersey Customs and
Immigration Service.
"My colleagues at the Jersey Customs and Immigration
Service remain committed to upholding Jersey’s
immigration laws and firm action will be taken against any
individual or business attempting to exploit the system."
