Romania: Illegal Afghan migrants caught


A bid to get to Britain turned sour for 50 Afghan would-be migrants when they were arrested hiding in the tanks of a vinegar lorry.


The group - which included 15 children - were discovered in a false compartment under the main tanks filled with thousands of litres of Greek vinegar.
