This episode focuses on Mohammed Mokter Hossain, who ran a sophisticated people smuggling network bringing people into the UK from his home in East London. For a fee, he could also arrange for you to leave the country in the back of a lorry, which is ideal if you’re wanted for murder or child abuse offences, as two of his customers were.  The Travel Agent looks at how Hossain’s million-pound criminal empire was brought crashing down by an undercover NCA operation.
