Woman arrested for doing citizenship tests for 14 different migrants – wearing a DIFFERENT wig each time

A WOMAN has been arrested for completing citizenship tests for 14 different migrants – wearing a different wig each time.

The 61-year-old even disguised herself as men in her alleged attempts to win them leave to remain in the UK.

Immigration cops raided her home yesterday where they discovered her wide array of toupés.

Her meticulously-planned scam allegedly saw her complete multiple Life in the UK tests between June 2022 and August 2023 in exchange for cash.

The exam is a requirement for anyone wanting to make Britain their permanent home and involves 24 questions about our values, history and society.

She was finally busted by Immigration Enforcement Criminal and Financial investigators and is being held in custody.

Inspector Phillip Parr said: “This individual is believed to have orchestrated a pre-meditated plan to avoid detection, meticulously selecting disguises and test centre locations across the country to evade the authorities.

“As with many criminals who commit this type of crime, we believe her motive was financial gain.”

Firefighters raced to the scene after the tarmac in South Shields, South Tyneside, gave way.

Luckily, no one was hurt but a number of families living nearby were evacuated as a precaution.

Owner Kiera Hall, 17, broke down after spotting her brand new Fiat 500 was one of the three motors.

The A-level student, who has only just passed her test, said: “My car was vertical in the hole – I burst into tears.

“But I got really lucky, there’s only a mark on the front.”

Lucy Mouter, 33, looked out to see her boyfriend’s BMW disappearing into the abyss.

She phoned him to break the bad news – adding: “He was quite shocked.

“The residents in the home next to where the sinkhole is have been removed.”

A Northumbria Police spokesperson said it received a call at about 5.30am and closed the road immediately.

Emmerdale’s Joe Warren Plant goes Instagram official with new girlfriend months after split with model

Joe, 22, stood close with a girl who was tagged as Isabella under a private Instagram account.

He previously dated Anna Norton for over two years and they even bought a house together and shared a pet cat.

But insiders told The Sun the romance hit the rocks, despite a trip to America together last year.

The couple bought a place together in Blackpool in 2022 and seemed to be going from strength to strength after a rocky start.

A source said at the time: “Joe and Anna are over, it’s very sad but they are still very young.

“It hasn’t been the amicable split they were hoping for and they aren’t speaking now at all.”

Joe, who plays Jacob Gallagher in the ITV soap, and Anna previously fell out after claims she was unfaithful.

Sources said at the time that Joe was furious to find messages on her phone from someone else.

But the pair worked through it and welcomed their ‘first child’ – a cat called Wolfie.

Joe’s character was first introduced to the village in 2010 and since then has faced testing situations.

Dancing On Ice star Joe said about working on the ITV soap: “I am happy here and see myself here for the foreseeable future.

“I never thought I would get to this point and I really want to reiterate how grateful I am.

“Sometimes when I look at pictures of myself over the years, I just think ‘wow I have been here for 13 years’. It’s crazy but it is so much fun.”

He has had a tough couple of years following the death of his mum.

Joe told how his mum passed away following liver complications aged 47 last November.

Speaking in an interview about his devastating loss for the first time, the star reflected: “Mum was so supportive and such an amazing person. I miss her a lot.”

The Sun told earlier this year how Joe has been working in a pub alongside the soap to earn some extra cash.

During his trial he shockingly told jurors: “I accept every single thing.

“She died because of me.”

Sara’s stepmum Beinash Batool, 30, got £201,000.

The pair were jailed for life after being convicted of murdering ten-year-old Sara, in Woking, Surrey.

Her uncle Faisal Malik, 29, who was found guilty of causing or allowing her death in 2023, was jailed for 16 years.

He got £272,000 for his defence.

Legal aid is paid to lawyers, not defendants, to ensure a fair trial.

The Ministry of Justice was asked to comment.
