IMMIGRATION officials have arrested three workers at a Chinese restaurant in Parkstone.
Officers raided Yum Yum Oriental on Ashley Road on Friday evening detained three members of staff found to have no rights to work in the UK.
One customer, who asked not to be named, said immigration officers came in between 8.30-9.30pm and spoke to members of staff.
Having just finished their starter, he and his friend were asked to pay for their wine but were told their food would be paid for by the restaurant and were asked to leave as officers began conducting their interviews.
A Home Office spokesperson said: “Acting on intelligence, Home Office immigration officers visited a commercial address on Ashley Road, Poole on the evening of Friday, October 21.
“Checks undertaken established that three individuals working on the premises were immigration offenders who had no right to work in the UK.”
Immigration Enforcement are now actively looking to have the three Chinese nationals - a 31-year-old woman, and two men, aged 26 and 45 - deported.
