 NCIS United Kingdom Threat Assessment of Serious and Organised Crime 2003
Accurate identification of the nationalities involved is complicated by the fact that some migrants arrive without documents and then falsely claim a nationality which they think will enhance their claim for asylum.

Shared nationality or ethnicity helps to establish trust, but so do other shared experiences, and so it is not uncommon to find ethnically mixed organised facilitation groups and mixed groups of illegal migrants.
