ROME, Italy, -- Seventeen would-be Kurdish
immigrants from Iraq were expelled from Italy after
they were found hidden in a truck which arrived in
the southeastern port city of Brindisi, border
police said Tuesday.
The men were apprehended on Monday just after the
truck arrived in Brindisi by ship from Greece, an
official from the border police said.
Two men -- a Turk and an Armenian -- have been
arrested for trying to smuggle them in.
On Monday,
26 Iraqis and two Iranians
were arrested in the same region for
trying to sneak into Italy from Greece.
