Police swooped on a petrol station after four suspected migrants were seen getting off the back of a lorry.
A picture captured police and an ambulance at the M2 Medway services, with a figure peering out the back of a truck at around 8.30am this morning.
Four men, two who said they are Iraqi, and two Iranians, were referred to the Home Office after police contacted immigration officers.
It comes as two other suspected migrants are believed to have landed at Greatstone on Romney Marsh this morning.
All four cases from the Medway incident will be processed in line with the UK immigration rules.
