A third man has been arrested in connection with the death of an Afghan immigrant found in a shipping container on 16 August.
The 47-year-old from Dungannon in Tyrone was arrested in Merseyside in connection with the death of Meet Singh Kapoor.
Meet Singh Kapoor, 40, was found dead in a shipping container with 34 people alive at Tilbury Docks in Essex.
The man was held at Liverpool Ferry Port on suspicion of manslaughter and facilitating illegal entry into the United Kingdom and is due to transfer to Essex Police custody this evening, the force said.
Two lorry drivers have already appeared in court in connection with the case.
Stephen McLaughlin, 34, and Timothy Murphy, 33, both from Derry, Northern Ireland, are charged with conspiring to facilitate illegal entry into the UK.
They are due to appear next at Basildon Crown Court in November.
Mr Kapoor was among a group of 35 immigrants found in the container, including 13 children, the rest of whom survived the ordeal.
The group, whose ages ranged from one to 72, are believed to have fled Afghanistan after suffering persecution.
