Remorseful UK duo, who bolted past border officials, made a contribution to the Solidarity Fund as a show of 'good faith'

DURBAN: Two British citizens pleaded guilty to charges of obstructing the administration of justice and contravening the Immigration Act after they failed to stop at the Swaziland border post in April and entered South Africa illegally.

On the obstruction of justice charge, both Hackett and Bali were issued a R40 000 fine or 12 months imprisonment, suspended for five years, on condition they are not convicted of the same offence during the said period of suspension. As a gesture of good faith to the people of South Africa, the pair paid R15 000 each into the Solidarity Fund in support of government’s fight against the coronavirus.

For housing the two men, the owner of the establishment was also arrested at the time for having contravened the Disaster Management Act. State prosecutor Ronitha Singh told the court that the pair had committed a serious offence in entering the country when it was in a State of Disaster.

They should be taken to lindela and stay there until their deportation is completed.

Thabisomolapo You mean two foreigners

HermanMashaba what's you say on this headline

Harman mashaba and his friend katlego philey must come this side

Should be banned from ever entering SA for good

What about the millions of illegal parasites that contribute nothing to south africa? When is there going to be an article on them?

You are a disgrace for this headline, because they are white you say British nationals, those are law breaking foreigners

Why is this news ? There are plenty of people coming in illegally, as a matter of fact they are welcomed with open arms and even receive all our benefits.

We are tired of foreigners. Deport those illegal aliens, they are no different to illegal Nigerians, Chinese, Zimbabweans, Malawian etc

The only way for these fines to mean anything is if they are never allowed a visa (as in, never).

Foreigners, please be consistent

Are they not Illigal foreigners from Britain?

Foreigners national who bought our land with Title deed

AdvoBarryRoux Two illegal foreigners you mean?

SHLALI_SM To be illegal, has nothing to do with pigment, it just illegal. We have millions of illegal foreigners and arresting two people doesn't come close to scratching the surface. PutSouthAfricansFirst is calling for mass deportation of everyone illegal.

Foreigners foreigners Foreigners Foreigners

uLerato_pillay Aren't these foreigners?

Wouldn’t it be news if we read this same headline a lot more often. U know where I’m going with this...

Say foreigners, and add their pictures,

Julius_S_Malema But already 90percent of white people are illegal here mos maybe they were coming to fetch the likes of karyn,cliff and more.

AdvoBarryRoux Can we see their pictures

Julius_S_Malema Send them to Lindela

Get those Brits out of the cou try really fast. EFF...this is the enemy.

Can’t believe that they have just been fined. Converting rands to pounds all they have to pay as fine is a meagre 3000 pounds thereabouts. Should have let them enjoy the hospitality of our jails for a few years before deporting them - pity that

Deport all this illegal criminal PutSouthAfricansFirst

Throw them in jail first and then deport them

ZoomZungu72 Foreigners is the word

Depot those foreigners

Their is a lot of them illegally in SA, since the 17th century. Send them all back. Deport the whole lot. We will not miss them.

The cost to deport non-Africans like Europeans, Americans, Asians etc is to high and hits the fiscal

How did they make it to RSA and when?

Two foreigners

“Two Foreigners from Britain plead guilty to entering South Africa illegally.”

LEN4Masilela uLerato_pillay this side. Retweet this and call these criminals 'foreigners' who violated of sorts of laws, putting 'South Africans' at a great risk of being infected with covid19 and other diseases MbuyiseniNdlozi

...a white man is a tourist, a Black man a terrorist. a white man is an expatriate, a Black man, foreigner.

The headline should be... 'Two foreigners from Britain pleaded guilty to entering South Africa illegally' Just like you always report on Africans.

They must serve their sentences in South Africa and not be deported

LEN4Masilela Even whe they are from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 please put the title with respect like you just did there.. Dont call them illegal immigrants anymore.. Thank you.

maggsnaidu “Investors” doing the most🤷🏾‍♂️

Please tell us they are at Lindela Centre already ?

British Nationals got arrested but handcuffs shows black hands..?

Heeei,they are not the Only ones,still plenty,check with Orania,they are white foreigners there.

HermanMashaba

Lama kwerekwere ayahlupha

HermanMashaba uLerato_pillay come this side with your PutSouthAfricaFirst brigades

At least one of Illegal British migrants or illegal British foreigners or Foreign British Illegal Migrants would have been descriptive enough.

Illegal immigrants

Abramjee How unfair can this be?

Nigerians?

Abramjee Where and how did they enter For what good reason?

HermanMashaba what say you?

Foreigners

ARE THEY REALLY BRITISH

Foreigner criminals hard at work

Lets bet lets tune in to ENCA and these two didnt make the news😂

Lol

Why are they not sent to lindela?

Deport them at their own costs,if they were from Africa some will say we're not calling them foreigners. They are foreigners,it doesn't matter where they are from.

Foreigners 'whites are foreigners.

It's free for everyone banana republic it is. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Deport them

Fmtjose foreigners they must go back we have enough foreigners in S. A

PhahlamohlakaM Two illegal immigrants from Britain. The fines imposed is nothing to them taking into account the Rand-Pound exchange rate. There was more to them behaving that way that should have been investigated.

British foreigners!

miazo3

Which ones are foreign nationals?

Foreign nationals🤷‍♂️😁

Why would you want to go come here from the UK anyways?

Breaking News:Two foreigners from British plead guilty to entering South Africa illegal

SiphoNdabandaba They will get suspended sentences.

minenhl1797 They should now deport those foreigners.

ndabekunene Say foreigners 😏

You're not calling them foreigners Why?

I never I'd live to see this day.

This thing of suspended sentences is useless. Why don't they say not guilty once? Bcos even if you fine them 1 million it becomes overridden by the si cold suspension. Period

Kill them.

But why can't be consistent with the implementing these laws... This will safe us a great deal of trouble and money... And those R40000 fines can come in handy

What about people who don't respect social distance in Johannesburg, Mayfair

Deport those fools

They'll be home tomorrow

The verdict from that story I remember it from last month these 2 morons came into the country through the Golela boarder post and book in at GlenWood in Durban! LockdownSA

Are they white? Why using the pic of a black person cuffed?

any tom dick and harry can in SA. Shows level of incompetence with our government. Land for anyone who live in it.

Why is this fee so high do the Zimbabweans. Mozambiqueans and other African state pay the same for entering SA illegally? Treat everyone fairly

Zimbabwean parasites would rather feel entitled and demand food parcels and RDP houses than plead guilty...
