TWELVE workers at the Beijing Capital International Airport are facing charges of transporting stowaways.
Prosecutors found they tried to smuggle 26 stowaways onto international flights on eight occasions from February 2006 to December 2007. Their ruse was successful on four occasions and 13 stowaways reached Canada.
Mi and Zhu were responsible for contacting Zheng, who also had four accomplices, all from Singapore.
The Singaporeans were hired to use their identity cards to buy air tickets and collect boarding passes. They then caught airport buses to the parking apron and handed their passes to the stowaways and returned in the car that had brought the stowaways.
