Anas Al Mustafa, 43, was convicted for trafficking seven people in a specially-adapted van, discovered screaming for help due to lack of oxygen.
Judge Christine Laing KC remarked that the offence compromises the economic and physical safety of the nation and every citizen residing within it.
She added that the safety of the country relies on knowing who is living within it, highlighting the pressing need for border control.
Desperate individuals risk their lives to enter the UK, often exploited by traffickers indifferent to their safety and well-being.
