'The couple were running an illegal porn business from the hotel. 'The man was naked with just a towel around him when he answered the door. She was wearing sexy lingerie, lying on the bed. 'There was a video camera set up on a tripod and the room was littered with sex toys and handcuffs. He told us he was filming it to put on OnlyFans.'

'They had flown into the UK and claimed asylum at passport control. The luggage looked genuine.'
