Europol: Ireland a haven for illegal immigrants
IRELAND is a “highly attractive” destination for illegal immigrants and criminal gangs smuggling them in, according to an EU security report.
The report also said Irish criminal gangs were bypassing international drug traffickers in Europe and arranging deals in “source” countries.
“The UK and Ireland are highly attractive destinations for illegal immigrants and organised crime (OC) groups who facilitate illegal immigration,” said the EU Organised Crime Threat Assessment 2008, conducted by Europol.
