It was established that 234 of them were migrant workers from Myanmar and Cambodia.
He added that despite many migrant workers having valid work permits, some could not provide valid document to prove their status and might be charged with violating the Working of Aliens Act and the Immigration Act, if their employers also failed to show proof of their status.
