SIX Afghan men, who were in a group of 12 suspected illegal immigrants found hiding in a lorry delivering to Blackmoor Apple Farm on Good Friday, are still missing.

Six of the suspected immigrants were captured later that day, one in Selborne and the others near a farm at Liss, and police handed them over to the UK Border Agency.

An agency spokesman said: "Three of the Afghan men were detained before they are flown back to Afghanistan while the other three have been placed on immigration bail pending review of their case."
