CBC investigating possible illegal migrant landing
(CNS): The Cayman Islands Customs and Border Control Service is investigating a report made on Friday of a migrant vessel in the Prospect area of Grand Cayman. Officials are asking people to come forward if they have seen the boat or the people on board. They also reminded the public that it is an offence to assist people in landing or remaining in the Cayman Islands illegally.
Doing so is in contravention of the Customs and Border Control Act (2024 Revision) and is a crime punishable by a fine of up to CI$50,000.00 or a term of imprisonment of up to seven years or both, the officials said in a press release.
Suspicious activity can be reported via email at legalCBC@gov.ky.

I’d have a hard time worth any judge that would find a resident culpable & fine them $50 k and throw them in jail for 7 years for assisting a needy human being with food and water .
How can our highly touted Guard let a small boat like this get through? It is a joke!
Well they’ll fit in well with all of the fishermen living off empty lots in the area.
I’ve been seeing people on the island lately that look like homeless migrants. They don’t look Caymanian, and they don’t look like the nationalities that have come here historically.
Do my Saturday supermarket shopping in ‘scruffs’…
Many wealthy people about that may look homeless…
Not everybody dressses in their ‘best’ to impress.
What exactly do homeless migrants look like, that are not Caymanians and ‘don’t look like the nationalities that have come here historically.’….
Come on, you’re clearly a Fox News watcher. You know exactly what homeless migrants look like.
?
Clearly you are not too clear.
They are the new work permit holders, paid the Caymanian’ minimum wage
