A 34-year-old woman has been arrested in Luton on suspicion of smuggling illegal immigrants into the UK.
Officers from the Eastern Region Special Operations Unit supported by the National Crime Agency carried out warrants after a number of people, predominantly Albanian, were detained by immigration services and police over recent months.
The warrants were carried out at addresses in Luton, Finchley in north London, and Greenford in west London on Tuesday (July 7) and Wednesday (July 8) this week.
A café in Finchley was also searched.
Two men, aged 32 and 20 were arrested at the London addresses.
All were arrested under section 25 of the Immigration Act 1971.
They are alleged to be involved in facilitating the illegal entry of non-EU citizens into the UK.
All three have been bailed until September pending further enquiries.
