THREE men detained in Dover are being questioned by police investigating a murder in Sussex.

Two men from Macedonia aged 19 and 31, and a 27-year-old Albanian, were found in a lorry at Dover docks on Thursday.

It is believed they were trying to leave the country.

They are now being questioned in connection with the death of Altin Molita,23, an Albanian man from Brighton who died from stab wounds after a collision involving three cars in Hove early on May 1.

Three Kosovan men and an Italian lorry driver have been charged in London with people smuggling after allegedly trying to help the suspects leave the UK.

The 37-year-old lorry driver was named as Italian Fante Columpsi. He was charged with conspiracy to facilitate illegal entry of a non-EU member into an EU member state.

The three Kosovan men who face the same charge are Ferdinand Hasa, 26, of Edmonton Green, Petrit Muka, 28, of Whetstone, North London, and Urim Gasha, 30, of Barnet, North London.
