Hotel inspection finds irregular migrants and Chilean fugitive wanted for child sexual exploitation

An inspection of hotels in Chile's Metropolitan Region has uncovered irregular migrant workers and led to the arrest of a Chilean national with outstanding warrants for child sexual exploitation. The operation, conducted by the National Migration Service with technical support from the Investigations Police (PDI), aimed to verify the immigration status of hotel employees.

The discovery highlights ongoing concerns regarding irregular migration and the exploitation of vulnerable individuals. The fugitive, a Chilean citizen, was found to have two active arrest warrants related to severe offenses against minors, underscoring the complex challenges authorities face in combating such crimes.

This enforcement action is part of broader efforts to regulate labor conditions and ensure compliance with immigration laws within the hospitality sector. The PDI's involvement signals a coordinated approach to address both immigration irregularities and serious criminal activity.
