illegal immigrants found on M25 in back of freezer lorry

Staff reporter(wp/es):
Fifteen suspected illegal immigrants – including a child – have been found in the back of a freezer lorry on the M25.
Police officers rushed to Clackett Lane services in Surrey at 10.15am following reports of concern for the group.
The 14 adults and one youngster were discovered when the driver of the lorry “heard banging”, coming from inside the vehicle, police said.
Officers closed the main slip road into the petrol station while the people were detained on suspicion of illegal entry.
All 15 are currently in hospital undergoing routine checks.
The driver of the lorry is currently assisting police with enquiries.
The investigation has now been passed to UK Visas and Immigration Service.
