Illegal immigrants found in raids as part of slavery investigation A CONVENIENCE store at the centre of a modern slavery investigation is accused of paying immigrant workers “a pittance” and putting them up in unsafe conditions. Councillors heard that Sussex Police raided Saltdean News and found a worker with no right to be in the UK on 16 December, after receiving a Home Office crime report. Officers also found another illegal immigrant at a premises in Portslade owned by the licensees, Krunal Chandrakant Patel and Kirma Krunal Patel. Sussex Police asked Brighton and Hove City Council to review Saltdean News’ alcohol licence the same month, and notified the Patels.
TRIBUTES have been paid to a founder member of popular Bradford band The Dingos, who has died. Kenny Fowler was in the original line-up of the Sixties band and was also an accomplished artist. Garth Cawood, who was in The Dingos with Kenny, said: “Ken was a one-off, his unique guitar playing and vocal talent gave the band its original sound. The Dingos were highly regarded in the 60s and were compered alongside the Rolling Stones. Kenny became a highly successful artist but still found time to perform in our reunion shows.” The only son of Norman and Theresa Fowler, Kenny went to Bradford Art College and became an illustrator, working for advertising agencies in Leeds. He later worked as a freelance illustrator until retirement. He painted many watercolours of landscapes, particularly the Dales and Lake District, and seascapes.
