Illegal immigrants covered in white plaster were rounded up by police and immigration officials in Barham this morning.

They were seen getting off the back of a lorry near Barham Crematorium at just before 10am.

The lorry, which had been transporting plaster, continued towards London while the men were seen wandering around the village and eating berries from trees.

One group of illegals were found on a private driveway and told a villager they were running away from the police.

Six men were detained in the morning and another 10 later in the day.
They are believed to be from Afghanistan and have been taken to the immigration centre in Dover.
