“They were all blacklisted for immigration and banned from entering the country as undesirable aliens,” the agency said.
The agency noted that “the number of foreign sex offenders banned from entering the country in the first semester is lower compared to the 84 foreign sex offenders banned during the same period last year.”
According to the BI, among those denied entry, “58 of the excluded passengers are registered sex offenders (RSOs) or individuals with criminal records for sex offenses in their respective countries.”
