MOBILE, AL (WALA) -

U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office of Field Operations officers 
worked with authorities to apprehend three Indonesian nationals in 
Arkansas last week who had deserted from various international cruise 
ships docked in the United States over the past three years, according 
to an agency news release.

CBP officers in Mobile received notification in June that crew members 
had failed to report back to a cruise ship for departure after shore 
leave and conducted an investigation with law enforcement partners 
supporting the Border Enforcement Security Task Force in the region 
including U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Enforcement and 
Removal Operations.

Border Enforcement Security Task Forces are comprised of officers and 
agents from federal and local agencies - responsible for identifying, 
interdicting and investigating a wide variety of transnational border 
crime including the illegal smuggling of drugs, persons, currency and 
weapons.

"U.S. Customs and Border Protection maintains a high level of 
vigilance and works closely with a myriad of law enforcement partners 
as part of efforts to manage our borders," said Steven Stavinoha 
Director, New Orleans Office of Field Operations, in the news release. 
"This is just the latest example of the men and women of CBP working 
hard every day to secure our borders and keep our Nation safe."

Three Indonesian crew members aiding the deserters had previously been 
removed, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
