Three men aged 20, 22, and 30, none of whom reside in Andorra, have been imprisoned at La Comella after police detained them in Pas de la Casa for breaching prior expulsion orders.
The non-residents were arrested early this week during standard preventive patrols in the border community, where officers monitor public safety. One man, aged 20, was stopped alone shortly after 1am on the Abelletes footbridge. The other two, aged 22 and 30, were apprehended together after 4am in Plaça Coprínceps. Suspicious behaviour prompted identity checks, as the men were not always carrying identification documents.
Record checks confirmed that all three had been previously expelled from Andorran territory for earlier offences. At least two faced judicial expulsions substituting firm prison terms, issued just months ago for seven-year periods, while the third stemmed from a government order. Despite these bans, they had re-entered the country illegally.
Police arrested them immediately upon verification and placed them at the courts' disposal. They were transferred to La Comella prison that afternoon. The detentions form part of routine controls in Pas de la Casa, as reported by the Police Corps.
