Gardai discovered five people, including a young girl believed to be around three years of age, inside a shipping container in New Ross, Co. Wexford, last Sunday.

The group, all of whom are believed to be Kurdish, were found in good health. According to them, they are fleeing prosecution and would like to apply for asylum in Ireland.

They are thought to have entered Irish soil on board the Irish Ferries Oscar Wilde ship which docked at Rosslare on Sunday evening.
