Border division issues warning following immigration conviction

The Island's border division says it'll continue to investigate immigration offences, after a UK man was fined £7,500 and banned from the Isle of Man.

56 year old Preston man Mohammed Enayet was convicted of dishonestly helping two other men move to the Island.

As well as being fined, Enayet was ordered to pay £1,900 in court costs and excluded from the Island for five years.

In a statement, a spokesman for the division said "Those who seek to facilitate immigration offences should be in no doubt that they can expect to be investigated and, where appropriate, prosecuted."
