Modern day slavery does exist, but this is the first case of this kind to be heard in court.
Six Lithuanian men were trafficked to the UK and severely exploited by the gangmaster company that employed them, DJ Houghton Chicken Catching Services Ltd, based in Kent.
The men were sent by the company, run by Darrell Houghton and Jacqueline Judge, to catch chickens on farms around the country.
