Hooligans caught in Johannesburg set to be deported !!

Hooligans from Argentina, said to be planning 'acts of violence' during the World Cup have been detained at South Africa's main airport and are to be deported.

The accused all flew in on a flight from Angola, probably thinking they would be able to bypass the systems developed by the South Africa Police Service to stop known trouble makers from entering the country, but that is just us assuming.

"Intelligence indicated that these persons would commit acts of public disorder, engage in acts of violence and provoke conflict with certain fans of opponent teams and other groups from Argentina during the 2010 FIFA World Cup," a statement from the South Africa Police said today.

Police also said that one of the 10 men is out on bail for murder. Nice to see that the security measures put in place seem to be working.
