Beijing's Chaoyang community police recently detained and deported eight female foreigners found illegally residing in the city. In the end of February of this year, Chaoyang police received a strange report. Neighbors had reported that several foreigners have moved into their apartment block and had been acting very odd ever since. The foreigners rarely left the house during the day and seemed panicked whenever other neighbors tried to chat them up.

The police investigated the situation and found that eight foreign women were living together in the apartment in question, all from Asian countries. None of the women held valid visas. The women had first come to Fujian and Guangzhou in order to find work. They had not applied for visa extensions for their tourist visas. In February, in order to escape their local police, the women came to Beijing to look for work and found rental housing through a contact in the area. None of them had found a job yet when they were detained by the police. The women were soon deported by the police after being found guilty of residing in China illegally.
