I am appalled that the people in your article Human-smuggler faces jail' (October 12) have just been sentenced to prison after having been known to the authorities for smuggling people into this country for at least ten years.
I think this is a deplorable situation and highlights the incompetence and apathy that prevails in the Home Office regarding criminals in the country. They are allowed to have the benefit and sanctuary of our systems which they blatantly abuse.
