The Department of Home Affairs have arrested undocumented immigrants in raids on trucking companies in Cape Town on Friday morning.
An SA Trucker working for Belogix confirmed that two undocumented yard workers were arrested at the company while another one was nabbed at the neighbouring Milltrans.
