Philipsburg:--- The police and immigration department has begun their planned immigration controls. The officers visited a number of businesses and work sites in search of illegal workers. During the process, they managed to arrest 14 persons who were working and residing on the island illegally.
Police also visited neighborhoods where they believe illegal immigrants are residing said police spokesman Ricardo Henson. Those arrested and are to be deported are from Italy, Jamaica, France, Anguilla, Dominican Republic, and Dominica.
The controls currently taking place are in keeping with what Minister of Justice Magali Jacoba said in November when she launched the Brooks Tower Project to regulate illegal residents on St. Maarten. The controls were scheduled to begin on March 1 and it is under the supervision of the island's chief of police.

Where will they deport the French and Italian to. The Italian I am not sure but as Europeans and especially the French, will they be sent over the border to the French side? How does that work?.

As far as I know, people of the EU are allowed to reside on the French side legally.
