Fake visas at Leeds Bradford International airport
Seven illegal immigrants flew into Leeds in an attempt to get into the UK "by the back door".
The gang tried to enter at Leeds Bradford International Airport's border control on Sunday January 31.
Each held fake visas which were confiscated before they were put on return flights home.
Every visa applicant arriving in Leeds is now fingerprinted and checked against a range of immigration, crime and terrorism watch lists before being allowed to enter the country.
