This is a good result.
It always been difficult investigating and taking action with these bogus religious organisations.
Still need to do a lot of work on the bogus colleges as well.

The article does say "Ten were arrested on suspicion of obtaining leave by deception, contrary to Section 24 of the 1971 Immigration Act". That doesn't mean they are guilty until proven.

In my book it does - these vermin obviously obtained visas / clearance under false pretences and should be deported without further delay. I doubt if they'll be going on trial
