Stowaways Found In New Maserati Sports Cars

Ten suspected illegal immigrants have been discovered hiding in the boots of new imported Maserati sports cars.

The stowaways, who are believed to be from Vietnam, were found by Surrey Police as the cars were being carried on a car transporter through Egham.
Nine of those detained were transported to Dover, in Kent, and a juvenile was taken into police custody for social services to help.

The driver was not arrested. The cars had protective covers on the bodywork.

A police spokesman said officers were called to the Egham bypass at 13:00 BST on Wednesday.

He said: "The nine adults were arrested and a juvenile was detained on suspicion of illegal entry into the country.

"The adults were transferred to the UK Visa and Immigration centre in Dover and the juvenile was taken to a custody centre, as a place of safety, to await assistance from social services."
