Surge in number of immigrants deported



The number of illegal immigrants deported from Norway leapt 37 percent in the first three months of the year, as the country's new right-wing government brings in a more hardline policy. The country's immigration police deported 1,705 people, up from 1,248 in the same period last year. Of those deported, 157 were minors, with three sent home without their parents.

A total of 147 Nigerians were deported, followed by 138 Afghans, 102 Romanians, 92 Albanians, 84 Russians, 82 poles, 76 Lithuanians, 72 Iranians, 63 Iraqis, 60 Eritreans, 60 Syrians and 59 Somalis.
