[Fwd: South Africa deports Argentine football 'hooligans']

South Africa has deported 10 suspected Argentine football hooligans who
police say were planning to disrupt the World Cup.

The men, part of a larger group of about 80 fans, were arrested at
Johannesburg airport and found to be on an entry blacklist.

The men were said to belong to the country's "barras bravas", organised
groups renowned for football-related violence.

They were detained on Sunday after travelling from Argentina via the
Angolan city of Luanda, and deported on Monday.

At least two of them were group leaders, and another was out on bail for
murder, according to police.
