C mr. Seng I considered your application today but I'm not satisfied that you meet the requirements of the rules this time and so I'm going to refuse your application do you understand yes mr. Singh won't be catching his flight today instead he must explain the foreigner trying to his father the visa system acts as a filter the strict order control stop many people heading into Britain illegally but it's estimated there are 1 million illegal immigrants living working in the country it's the job of the enforcement changes to find those people who remove them from the UK first thing we initially had nine targets however that's been whittled down to seven what intelligence received from the management of this company that they may be employing some persons whom they believe may be illegal in this country five minutes and relief yeah London and South East enforcement James carry out over a hundred raids a week this morning they've raided a cleaning company and arrested two workers they believer in the country illegally one is a Nigerian as these are expired the other is from Ghana there is no record with mentor in the UK officer in charge Sharon Kilbourne decides to search the man's home well establishing initially that he actually lives there in the case of it into the the lock they do so we're going to bring him up and conduct a house search in order to locate his own passport and then the other documentation this is the person if he gives us or what we find that will be out there the team only have a photocopy supply by the man's employ this gentleman has a passport the legal authority has certified it has been the true a new document they took this to his employer of course even though he view employment policies being certified by the missus of these are the problems we have all the time tell us if your passport is here said the search in the whole room right to the passage first to be honest with you honesty is the best with honesty is really to be honest with you yeah and my brother was leaving yeah yeah tell me everything in the latest hangout this sermon here really said these passport was with the home office we've done checks it's not with the home office so we're gonna check your details here and now you're saying it's with the home you sinister oh yeah so your solicitor so where is it then you don't have any idea right and you report it to the police for every time I heard someone lost their passport and never reported it to police I'd be a rich woman I just did she where's your passport and you said to be honest I have no idea but you just said now it's with a brother that's not really your brother going on a photocopy of something in a copy of his grand passport why this was issued on the first time February all seven yeah that's the point probably where did you get this from in Britain this country over Bonner this one yeah in this mansion from the country yeah when my brother was just sended so he wasn't here when you've got this possible issue to you from yeah he was here in 2007 yes I was to be honest yes mummy look like the passport may not be here I think so this general like that will probably be out so report on the immigration battle cannot be destroyed by the arresting officers team knows about the travel doctors they cannot move the man but you have to report every week you understand why is your house probably gonna get stopped again by the police immigration okay all right we'll be reporting to us until we can get a document and a removal date for him and many people moved back to his country of origin so for him if he's ever a pre handed again there won't be no release for here may be detained until his release coming up officers in Kerala check trucks bound for Britain five adult males it all claim to be from Palestine the taxi driver who says is a student appears to the chief I think if I can be temporary mission you probably wouldn't come back well but you don't appear to follow our rules up to now do and it doesn't get any easier [Music] nearly a million trucks a year come through the port of Calais carrying goods into Britain over 400 British immigration officers work here at the French border checking that Freight is all the trucks are carrying in 2007 officers at Calais alone stopped nearly 12,000 people trying to cross the channel illegally officer Gary Caldwell has been working the Calais being for three years is his job to find and stop the illegal entrance known here as clandestine before they cross the French border we've just received a call from man I'm school security which is a French firm that conduct searches down at the the birthday by five search the lorry that I think they found five clandestine team so we're going to make our way down now have a look at it the kind this ones may have brings the poor things and got into the lorry whilst it's been parked down here first officer Caldwell must make sure that the clandestine aren't carrying any weapons no sharps no no [Music] yeah what we've got is Sam if it's a level load of of white goods as you can see and in a space maybe this high across the top there are five I believe five adult males it all claim to be from Palestine we're going to move you down one at a time we'll refer the circumstances to our CIO and then they'll make a decision on whether or not we're going to serve a legal entry papers on these people your first they just said to me everybody like jinglun which is why they're they're trying to make their way across there right now come on I'm worried so much about that one it's only speed [Music] 10:00 a.m. it's been a bad night for the passenger who says as a student and claims he doesn't work he's been detained in the holding room for 13 hours and now officers have written a confirmation from the taxi colleagues that he's been working full time he's refused entry and told we put on applying in two hours but he has a wife and two children living in bloom he asked to see the chief immigration officer Matt Dyson sometimes I think they they believe that if they talk to a senior officer he's going to turn around a bit more sympathetic but to be honest you know this decisions been through two CIOs now so it's not a decision I'm looking to overturn at all so but we can all see what he's got to say Jenna come on up a quick chat and the chief yeah we've just nip outside myself I just want to make it exist mm-hmm that I got my wife and my daughters two daughters in Luton yeah and I just want to request you personally that the peel I am NOT saying you know as it stands I'm not willing to entertain any and you're releasing you at the moment okay you can do that if you wish to appear no I'm not granting you temporary admission I think that's what you're asking for is in a temporary admission no because I think if I give you temporary mission you probably wouldn't come back well but you don't appear to follow our rules up to now do you know I've read this the case against you is pretty strong okay I don't think you're studying you don't know anything about your course if any get it do you want I can bring them in no I I can't really do that I mean I could understand why you you know your concern about your daughter's well no I mean your concern about your wife and daughter but obviously you know I have to balance that concern with the fact that you know you fall well short of as a student and also you didn't seem to think it was a problem going on holiday and leaving your wife and tortoise here did you so it's not as if you know I think that they're in any danger my brother is name is dying with the case that leukemia he's fighting for his life in hospital there was the reason I went to leave my wife and my kids right and so as I can understand you want to see your wife and and children I'm not gonna be letting you in I'm afraid if you want to pursue the appeal that's up to you you can never divorce yourself entirely from the decisions you make but in the end you have to look to your job and you have to look what is the right thing to do according to your job now you should never ever divorce yourself from being sympathetic towards people just because somebody foreshortened immigration rules doesn't automatically make them a bad person now this far as you know as far as we can go this guy's working too much and he's not studying as he claims okay and he's all basis of being here and also of having a family here whom he supports is as a student and the bottom line is if he's not doing it then he shouldn't be here and you know that that's that's the law and that's a policy made by government not by me my job is to apply it correctly the passenger did lodge an appeal before chief offers a Dyson's team could put him on applying after a week in a detention center he would granted temporary release he stood in the UK waiting for a rainy day back at Calais and officer Cole brothers are around there's another report of a lorry with clandestine Zomboid we've got three and Henderson was in the vehicle in front believe it or not it's gone mad and I now not yeah yes yes I need your photograph I can come up and get it if you like okay and then come on fella that's negatory back alone Ian you know Eric you know passbook on paper this paper let me see yeah okay from the French police early Colin yes yeah but what we look at is how secure the vehicle was what measures about the drivers and indeed their companies take to prevent clandestine is breaching them so we'll speak with the drivers to establish what that what if anything they've done to protect their lives and then we'll consider certain penalties if we think is appropriate after that paying their signs now that we'll check the photographs and fingerprint consider or not whether life commitment things will serve them paperwork confirming that on one side time will happen to the in French place and will remove him from the area the enforcement team in London need to search the home of a cleaner they've arrested on suspicion of being in the country illegally common what's your head yeah man gave a false name but officers found an ID and checks against this name confirmed he is from Nigeria and here on a tourist visa they expired two years ago a gentleman says his sister is his sister's address and she lives on the fifth floor we've got officers providing rear cover just in case someone throws looking at South windows the team must find his passport without it they can't send him back home because it's this is a bit nervous of the law and police in special immigrations officer system away from the people well she won't ask for the door basically she sees his first answer if she sees us she won't just waiting for action and obviously not cool and realizing that well I understand you whatever I would know it was you know who turned out the dough immigration got arrested so he say explain what is happening to her she will open the door let me just choose issues she does only our fridge tell her she doesn't open at all or smash the door in [Music] so you don't a full century this was sure that's a choice is a dress today obviously we've only got the pairs are four centuries is a dress and we're not hundred percent short so we're not we're not so capable kicking the door in is your passport in there or is in a different address is there a passport English address your possible in there you live long my passport is not very sharp on my passport is for a long time it just has to be time to let you use it in Kentucky to belong to knock it from your cheeks biotherm you see everything here so he's telling you you've got a prize for other reasons that you saying you know visa why have you returned your passport back to Nigeria it is because you know does a short story place why be returned it back to Nigeria why you saw one doctor sadly not taking part in it you know he said I'm getting new things every time I go back to Nigeria I've got a fake landing site comes from someone in Nigeria get a new visa yeah we know how it works he's known another what makes you ask we hear it in today I'm very sure of what I've seen for that I would like you to try to use father's view of damata not very available but that's what it's not here it's not being this England and I have to tell you the truth I swear to Almighty God the team can't get in the already spent eight hours on this operation and at the end of it two people I believe are illegal immigrants will be released just restrain because you've been out all day long hard grafton in the beach just gonna let go because of limited space the Immigration Service only detain someone if they believe he poses a risk to the public or is likely to abscond all they can do with the Nigerian is taken back to base to be called his details we stop with your I answer comer India yes never call me turn your face this one says oh okay this might we're gonna give you a white which I do you think I'm gonna listen let me find you you're not legally here and we have the right to take your fingerprints okay if you don't allow statement we can take him by force okay it's a lot easier if you just let us take them don't go to the police these problems an immigration database and but they go on an immigration database all around Europe so you go to any other country within Europe trying to be somebody else I can taste you and you'll come out when your fingerprints okay isn't about the media I've gone mid their degree it's not because she done a criminal offense now just or don't lift me yeah I'll give you this form it's a notification of time to release okay it basically means that we're releasing you need to report to this office you need to bring this paper with you yes and then you come back every Wednesday okay you're not allowed to work when yes so the best bet for you now is probably to go to Nigeria recommission and get a hold of a passport or a travel document and go back to Nigeria okay if I be deported a year they will kill me he was referred to kill me Yeah right everybody give me a better idea a toast with my life the man fears for his life he goes home to Nigeria because of a feud over property with members of his family it started after the death of his pair well he sold some property to fund his trip to Britain visually we spoke about possibility of you wanting to claim asylum but I'm not sure you are you so what you need to do is go home have a think about it thanks best when you come in tomorrow someone okay asylum is protection for people fleeing persecution in their own country the claim because of a family dispute however serious is unlikely to be successful well now he's been released he's probably gonna go home speak to his mates they're gonna tell him all no stay away what not I lost in the system again the man did report as instructed failing diet but he did not see the sign has not been seen since the Ghana and cleaner in summer 2003 months before disappearing both men have been circulated absconders in the police national computer coming up boiling he said looking break bad dog you've been through everything I'm not in a word but he threw the 41 year old Australian claiming to be a tourist has been stopped officer defender 2 is suspicious because the woman has limited father's and can tell him what she wants to do the passengers a chef an officer to believes he may intend to work and breathing what she's carrying in her luggage raises suspicions further she's just informed me that she's got some special language that she's checked in which she said with her chef's knives now when asked why she needed them she said she was gonna because I'm cooking for uncle and should we is that all the baggage that you have at the moment your lives are in the fragile okay well go on grab your knives okay I'm just gonna have to take this away from you as well just for them just whilst we're conducting our inquiries okay I can't let you have this and then I'll return it back to you after it's okay officer tumor search all the women's bags to find out if she is a genuine tourist in with her laptop he discovers several copies of the woman's CV we also have copies of her educational stiff Achatz with her she's got copies of them I mean it it's it's stranger than someone being educational it's CBS and coming for a holiday at her age 41 she's too old to get a working holiday make a visa to come here through that channel no I haven't looked at qualifications exactly but you know we've got the new points based system so maybe she doesn't qualify for the points to get the right work permits to come over so you know they left with no other option but to come and see country as a Vista and then work illegally can I ask you what this is what's this the CV that I used how I get working think this is like how I sit into my place this guy's electronically who Siri isn't mine Ravin Cameron's why are you bringing them with you they've always met an elector they're always it they're always there you're always in my bank right yeah so many copies you've got you've got about 25 copies of your covering letter yeah and there must be maybe the same amount of CDs when I'm looking for work

take every year I go can you not use their knives to cook this was it blunt you always cut now why not only gonna cook for friend how many friends do you have here you have you have an uncle yeah you have an uncle to cook for and you have Julie to cook for and another so there's three people I like using risers knives it's a personal thing that I've had my I know it's people's nice and normally blunt okay I mean looking at what we've done what we've looked at so far everything suggests to me that you're coming to the United Kingdom to seek and take employment here oh can I have your working visa here yeah no I can't work here but no everything suggests to me that you are because I mean why else would somebody carry a CV with them you have three friends here yeah and you've bought your chef's knives to cook for them but if you don't understand what I do on that but it's just you're not cooking unless you plan to cook in a professional kitchen you don't need to bring your lives with you if I go to my dad's house I take mine off if I know anyone's have to plan I take my knives so do you have any intention of working here everything that okay what did you say about the knives and Luckett well [ __ ] certificates she said what she always carries them around with her wherever she goes she's always looking for work I said you're always looking for right you're planning to work here no I'm not planning to work here I don't buy this thing about taking your chef's knives everywhere you go and you don't take your certificate you don't you left take yours oh no and it's not just

here in the United Kingdom in people that know I'm that's that's not going to stop all right let's have recipes in it she didn't take it too well she could spend a lot of money I mean it if it seemed as if she had limited funds to her anyway now you know someone wouldn't spend all that money to come here just for trip if they didn't have it I mean there must have been more intentions to her coming here like to work so she couldn't earn some more money so I think that was the right decision I've shared a medical conference and they refuse me a few country it's just so wrong you know he was merely was only but they'll never be a five-minute leave yesterday [Music] see I've done nothing wrong oh no no you're wrong don't miss country [Applause] [Music]
