During an operation to find illegal immigrants in the Maldives, 60 foreign workers fled to R. Maduvvari when they learned that immigration was coming to Emerald Maldives Resort & Spa in R. Atoll.
An official from R. Maduvvari Council said today that the foreign workers left by speedboats after learning that the Labor Relations Authority was coming to Emerald Resort to collect information about illegal immigrants. He said the council learned about one group arriving at Maduvvari through the police.
