Greek, British police smash gang supplying forged passports to migrants

ATHENS, Dec 12 (Reuters) - Greek and British police said on Monday they had broken up a criminal network that supplied forged travel documents to hundreds of illegal migrants trying to reach Britain and northern European countries.

Police swooped on the gang last week, arresting 24 suspects in Greece and nine in Britain.
