Listen to the last episode:
An Algerian man with no links to Ireland was able to obtain an official Irish passport in a false name by claiming he was the son of an Irish woman murdered in the UK. Dublin Circuit Court was told it was “harder to sign up for a mobile phone contract with Vodafone” than get an Irish passport, after it emerged that Sabouni Abdelhamid was granted the document after he claimed to be the son of Catherine ‘Kate’ Corridan, who was murdered in London .
Niall speaks to Crime World's Alan Sherry about how Abdelhamid was jailed after he was caught out in a lie.
