Immigration officers are questioning four Venezuelan men who allegedly tried to sneak into the country illegally on Sunday.
The quartet was found moments after they swam ashore at Long Bay some time between 12:30 pm and 1:30 pm. It is alleged that the men were dropped off by a boat and, after authorities received a tip-off about their arrival, the group was promptly intercepted.
The operation involved officers attached to the Customs Department, the Immigration Department, the Office of National Drug and Money Laundering Control Policy (ONDCP), and the police.
