Two men have been found guilty of smuggling guns worth more than £100,000 into the UK and conspiracy to possess firearms with intent to endanger life. Harry Shilling, 25, from Swanley, Kent, and Michael Defraine, 30, from Bexleyheath, southeast London, were convicted of two charges each at the Old Bailey. The court heard how the pair were part of a gang of arms dealers who smuggled into the country a cache of automatic weapons similar to those used by the Paris terrorists.
