(BBC) A teenager accused of killing four migrants carried on crossing the English Channel even after signs their boat was deflating, a court heard.
Ibrahima Bah, 19, piloted the vessel with 43 migrants on board even though it was designed to carry only 20 people, jurors were told.
He told police he had been threatened with death by those who had organised the crossing, the court heard.
The boat ran into trouble off the Kent coast in December last year.
Mr Bah denies four counts of manslaughter and another charge relating to the piloting of a boat.
