Aman Naseri, an 18-year-old Afghan national, is the first person charged with endangering others during a sea crossing to the UK without valid entry clearance. He allegedly piloted a boat with 46 people on board on January 5, the day a new law came into effect. Naseri pleaded not guilty and is remanded in custody until his court appearance on Friday. The charge aims to prevent dangerous crossings and could lead to up to six years in prison. Teljes cikk (bbc.com europe)
