Home Affairs deports European actress for lying about asylum status

Earlier, Briefly News reported that a Lithuanian actress, Ieva Andrejevaite, has been banned from visiting South Africa for five years after fabricating a story and claiming that she wanted to apply for asylum due to the Russian war in Ukraine.

The Department of Home Affairs deported the actress, and she was declared an “undesirable person” by immigration officials.

Andrejevaite arrived at the Cape Town International Airport in a private jet without a visa and was prohibited entry by immigration officials. She then filed an application at the Western Cape High Court and lied, SABC News reported. Andrejevaite later withdrew the application.
