Migrants asked to rate trip in smuggler review videos

Two men have pleaded guilty to people smuggling midway through their trial.

They were found to have Tripadvisor-style reviews of their journeys on their phones.

In the clips, migrants from the Middle East, heading to Europe, rate their journeys in videos filmed inside lorries, boats and planes.

"How was the route, lads?" They're asked in one.

Dilshad Shamo and Ali Khdir's smuggling operation, based in a car wash in Caerphilly, offered the migrants "bronze, silver, gold and platinum" travel packages.
