A British Airways Heathrow employee for years charged £25,000 to allow customers to fly without the necessary visa, scamming over £3 Million.
He is "on the run" in India.
The majority of his clients are understood to have been from India, who would fly to the UK on a temporary visa before he arranged for them to fly elsewhere where they claimed asylum, not wanting to return to India.
The alarm was raised in Canada after a disproportionate number of passengers on BA flights to Toronto or Vancouver would immediately declare asylum upon arrival.
A source told The Sun: “He exploited a loophole knowing that immigration checks are no longer carried out by officials but are left to airline staff."
