The National Crime Agency (NCA) said the 32-year-old was arrested at an address near Cheltenham, southwest England, on suspicion of being 'a member of the organised crime group who conspired to transport the migrants to the UK in a small boat'.

LONDON - UK police on Tuesday arrested a man suspected of playing a "key role" in the deaths of at least 27 people who drowned attempting to cross the Channel in a dinghy last November.

French prosecutors have so far charged 10 people for their alleged role in the disaster on 24 November last year. The suspect will appear before London's Westminster Magistrates Court on Wednesday, where extradition proceedings will commence.
