Employees of the Federal Migration Service, together with the police on the first day of the operation "Illegal Migrant" detained 250 illegal immigrants from Vietnam. This was reported by RIA "Novosti with reference to the press service of the FMS.

150 people worked in the underground workshop on sewing outerwear in the village of Semenovskoye Dmitrovsky District of the Moscow Region. According to the migration service, the secret workshop was organized on the territory of the former livestock farm. It is reported that about 100 Vietnamese were detained in the village of Balabanovo, Noginsky district of the Moscow Region.

Earlier on Wednesday, during the audit at the Moscow Metro stations, Komsomolskaya and Taganskaya, FMS officers identified 26 foreigners who violated the mode of stay in Russia. The violators draw up protocols on administrative violation under Article 18.8 of the Code of Administrative Offenses.

On Tuesday, the business ombudsman Boris Titov proposed to conductan amnesty for illegal labor migrants . The task of the state, the business ombudsman noted, is not to make it difficult for foreigners to access the labor market, but just to legalize the work of migrants in the country. "And there will be no prohibitions and punitive measures, but, on the contrary, maximum liberalization of obtaining work permits," Titov writes.

The idea was supported by human rights activists and coldly met the deputies and head of the Federal Migration Service Konstantin Romodanovsky. “I can definitely say that amnesty cannot be for those who are staring through our streets for incomprehensible goals and violating our rules. Moreover, under the new legislation, we close the entrance to them,” he said.

On Monday, the head of the Moscow department of the FMS Olga Kirillova said that illegal migration in the capital was almost over . After recent anti -migrant raids, most visitors in Moscow only work illegally - they are legally in the city, the official noted. Therefore, she concluded, now it should not be punished by workers, but by their employers.

On September 14, the Moscow police began large-scale "operational-preventive measures" for decriminalize the metro. As reported, special attention during the operation is paid, in particular, to counteract illegal migration and any manifestations of "ethnic crime".
