Home Secretary Suella Braverman vowed to root out “crooked immigration lawyers” on Tuesday as she unveiled a task force targeting lawyers who coach illegal immigrants to lie.

The Home Office and the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) said the Professional Enablers Taskforce, which targets “a small minority” of “unscrupulous lawyers,” has already uncovered a case in which an immigration firm is linked to “one of the most wanted human traffickers.”
