The Head of a People -smuggling ring who fled the UK to avoid jail has been arrested.

Tarik Namik led a gang that brought People from Iraq and Iran to the UK hidden in lorries.

The National Crime Agency (NCA) said his phone records suggested he may have been involved in smuggling at least 1,900 migrants in 50 days, charging each person about €1,800 (£1,540).

He was detained at Manchester Airport after a flight from Turkey on Friday.

The 45-year-old, from Oldham, after fleeing abroad.

Namik had previously pleaded guilty to conspiracy to help asylum seekers enter the UK.

His Organised Crime group became the subject of an NCA investigation in 2017.

NCA branch commander Richard Harrison said: " Namik was a prolific People smuggler whose crime group put vulnerable migrants at great risk while he reaped the profits.

" I'm delighted that he will now face justice for the offences he committed. "
