And while Cadiz was escorted out under guard,4 Hondurans found without papers probably won't get quite that same sendoff.

They are currently in the custody of the Immigration Department waiting to be deported at the soonest possible convenience. They were found guilty in the of illegal entry into Belize.

They are 18 year-old Yenifer Alejandra Erazo Izaguirre, 29 year-old Fary Carias Izaguirre, 18 year-old Kevin Ramirez Allamirano, and 23 year-old Karen Josaline Meraz Lopez.

According to the immigration authorities, it was determined that the 4 were smuggled in along the Mopan River in the Cayo District on Tuesday, and they had intentions of travelling to the United States.

What gave them away was that they went to Novelos Bus Terminal on West Collet Canal, and while waiting for a bus, they were asked for their immigration documents. When they were searched, it was discovered that not only did they not have a permit to enter, they also had no travel documents.

As a result, they were arrested and charged.

In court they all pleaded guilty to the charge,and Magistrate Flowers sentenced them to pay a fine of $1,000 which had to be paid forthwith. Magistrate Flowers also granted an application for a removal order which is to be executed by the Immigration Department as soon as possible.

They were all able to pay their fine by 2 p.m. this afternoon.
