Ramal Briem, 31, is arrested and charged with facilitating illegal immigration into the UK.
A man has been arrested and charged as part of an investigation into an organised people smuggling ring suspected of operating in the UK.
The 31-year-old was arrested on suspicion of facilitating illegal immigration at a property in Crawford Road in the city. Investigators are also linking him to an organised crime group involved in small boat crossings, four suspected members of which were arrested by the NCA in April. Mr Briem was later charged with facilitation offences and appeared before Wolverhampton magistrates on Friday.
