Description
If you’re a murderer on the run, or an international drug trafficker wanting to stay under the radar as you travel, a most prized possession will be your fraudulent passport. In The Golden Ticket, we learn about how NCA officers dismantled a crime group supplying fraudulently-obtained genuine passports, enabling dangerous criminals to operate and evade capture. This incredible episode highlights how the NCA used secret recording devices, undercover officers, and a masterful covert baggage search at Heathrow to collect one criminal’s DNA.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
