[dArKeR]

The third phase of an ongoing operation to crack down on people-smuggling caught 68 illegal Chinese immigrants and 15 Taiwanese citizens, an Executive Yuan task force reported yesterday.

The latest operation began at 10pm on Saturday and was conducted by a joint force initiated by the Executive Yuan to hunt down people smugglers and manned by agents from the Coast Guard Administration and the Criminal Investigation Bureau.

Since the operation began on Nov. 1 last year, 873 illegal Chinese and 236 Taiwanese had been taken into custody, said a spokesman for the task force.
