Police have arrested 41 illegal immigrants during an operation carried out in Nyeri.
Police say the foreigners from Ethiopia and the US were found without proper documentation.
The immigrants were on Tuesday arraigned before the Nyeri Law Courts for being in the country illegally.
Nyeri Senior Principal Magistrate Philip Mutua directed they be detained at Nyeri Central Police Station for one week pending completion of investigations.
An affidavit sworn by the Nyeri County Commander Ali Nuno shows that the immigrants were on transit to a neighboring country.
Nuno further says that a multi-agency team will be constituted to vet the immigrants.
The foreigners are aged between 18 and 25 and were arrested in Kiganjo and Karatina areas between March 3rd and 4th, 2019.

What....wamefika kwetu, haiya ( woiii ngai baba:-) , are they farming or what kind of business are they carrying out there? What attracted them to Nyeri, Coffee farming? Hey I'm curious
Wanyama, ndege, wadudu, na wanyama wote waishio mitoni, maziwani, kwenye nchi kavu, misituni, jangwani, hata hewani na mwishowe baharini ni werevu kuliko binadamu. Kwa nini? Hawana mipaka (boundaries). Wanatambua Sayari (planet) hii yetu kama zawadi kutoka kwa MWUMBAJI.
Kwa nini binadamu asijifunze kutoka kwa ndugu na dada hawa wetu wanaoishi katika Sayari ya Ardhi ambao HAWANA MIPAKA YA BANDIA KAMA BINADAMU!
This is what happens when your country becomes inhabitable,and devoid of opportunities.You migrate.Kenya has been ahaven for Ethiopians immigrants for many years,and dont believe that they were intransit to other neigbouring country.Which one?
I love it when diaspora Kenyans, especially those who carry a US passport, breath fire about Kenya being a ****hole country. I have lived here long enough to tell you that USA is not what it used to be...
-I work as a civil servant and our pension is grossly underfunded by the federal and state government. I might just squeak by to receive my pension, but it's future is seriously in doubt.
-The federal debt to GDP ratio is about 140% just behind Japan, Greece, Italy and Portugal among the largest economies in the world. Kenya is at 57%. This means that US is living approximately 40% above it's even level.
-Social security is grossly underfunded despite us contributing for years. The fund is using current contributions to pay retirees who are growing in numbers by the day.
-Birthrate is very slow and those giving birth are not contributing much to the system because they ones in need.
-US is living like the big kid on the world stage but the price tag is too high. It's like a retired professional basketball player who increases spending habits during retirement with a reduced income.
Given the above realities, it will take a massive hike in taxes in the future and/or a huge cut in services to stop the public sector resource hemorrhage. Forget about Trumps theatrics at the world stage. President after president continues to kick the can down the road of the inevitable overhaul of public sector spending and revenue.
Some Kenyans I know have started looking outside United States for investment....I know diaspora Kenyans who have opted to invest in places such as Belize, Costa Rica and Panama. These are a short plane hop away. Most of course invest in Kenya if they want to invest outside United States. However, let's not fool ourselves that future financial health of this country is certain.
Kama wageni hawa wa nchi ya Kenya hawahusiki na kuuza madawa ya kulevya, ukahaba, au mambo ya kuzalisha pesa bandia, JAMANI waruhusiwe kuanza maisha yao mapya katika nchi yetu ya Kenya.
