Mexican takeaway for illegal immigrant

March 9, 2009

If you are planning a new life abroad, then it's expected you will receive a card ot two wishing you well for the future.

If, however, that new life abroad happens to be illegal and you're not actually meant to be in that country, then a card of this kind is probably not welcome.

Unfortunately that is exactly what happened to one unamed Mexican man who arrived in Manchester claiming he was visiting a friend's new restaurant. The man was rumbled after border agency staff found a good luck card for 'his new life in the UK'.

Also discovered were pages of Mexican recipes which led our nameless hombre to admit he had come to England to work as a chef.

The next day he was sent packing back to Mexico and the people of Manchester will now have to do without their burritos and chimichangas.
