Hallo all, the Point of Entry drama is about an elite team of ICA "special agents". They are not the normal ICA officers. But you have sharp observation to notice and point this out! :)

They work on murders because it has something to do with illegal immigrants -...-

Wrong title should be CID not ICA show..Since when they have the authority to investigate murder or etc.What i know is the show is on forge passports or overatayers in the country only in their Checkpoints and Terminals.I didn't know their Warrant Card is as powerful then the SPF?
