Três presos após operação contra quadrilha suspeita de ajudar migrantes a fingir ser gays para obter asilo

Agentes de fiscalização de imigração do Reino Unido realizaram uma operação e prenderam três pessoas ligadas a uma suposta rede criminosa, que se acredita estar por trás de dezenas de pedidos de asilo fraudulentos. Segundo as acusações, os suspeitos cobravam dos migrantes até £4.500 por provas fabricadas, incluindo fotografias encenadas e documentos falsos.

UK immigration enforcement have made arrests in connection with a suspected criminal network believed to be behind dozens of fake asylum claims from people pretending to be gay. It follows a BBC investigation earlier this year, which revealed that law firms and advisers were helping migrants pose as gay in an effort to get asylum. Those targeted by Home Office immigration enforcement officers this morning are accused of charging migrants up to £4,500 for fabricated evidence, including staged photographs and fake documents.
