Organised crime gang breaks into UK base and steals vital evidence about Channel people smuggling
Aviation fuel worth about £30,000 and tools were also stolen from Lydd airport, in southern Kent, which contains the control room for drones that watch for small boats.
A hard drive that was held in a safe in a hangar was stolen in the raid on August 1. It contained footage of crossings from previous days.The clips had not been forwarded to Border Force or other organisations like the National Crime Agency. The raiders managed to break in by climbing over a fence and then cut through tarpaulin outside the hangar using a knife.It is believed the theft was an inside job because it happened at a time when there were no members of staff at the targeted hangar.Bristow Helicopters, which owns the airfield, has boosted security since.
