The three Englishmen convicted by the Portsmouth court, including a real estate businessman, an 47-year-old eccentric, who was known as Lord Redhead of Shanklin on the Isle of Wight, the island opposite the great port of Portsmouth in the south of England, a title that in fact he had bought it, they were sentenced to 16 years in prison, as they brought from a yacht from France to England only in one case 10 illegal Albanians. The event took place in March 2020 at a time when the pandemic had just plagued Britain.
It was the security camera footage, shown in the trial, that captured the moment of entry of the 23-meter yacht, named Anore, built in 1976 specifically for an American millionaire, mining owner, with whom the three Englishmen first went to the French port of Cherboug, to arrive two days later on the Isle of Wight, the largest English island in the south of the country.
It is thought that they were booked for this trip by Albanian criminal groups. According to the defense counsel of one of the defendants, his client had received orders from important people of an Albanian-led criminal group, adding that the money I earned from this trip for trafficking in Albanians had been deducted from a debt that was had them for 90 kg of cocaine owed to Albanians.
The judge in the case stressed that the three Englishmen had played their respective roles in this international criminal conspiracy, while they had made a similar trip earlier by trafficking Albanians to Britain. Trafficked Albanians could not be found by the authorities and are thought to be living in Britain. The British authorities have recently intensified the fight, but also the legislation against trafficking in human beings, where cases like this, show that criminal groups are often one step ahead of law enforcement agencies.
