Omar Adbuqadir (31) gave a journalist his wife's Swedish identity card so she could enter Ireland on a flight from Madrid to Dublin Airport. An immigration officer noticed her face did not match the card's photo, and her real identity documents were found in her luggage. Adbuqadir pleaded guilty to one count of people smuggling at Dublin Airport for an offence dated 3 November, and the woman was later granted asylum in Ireland. On 30 April 2024 he was jailed for 18 months at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, backdated to when he went into custody last November.
