Sir Mo Farah has been praised by UK charities and fans after revealing he was trafficked to the UK as a child.
The Olympic gold medallist, 39, shares in his upcoming BBC documentary, The Real Mo Farah, he is an illegal immigrant and was smuggled into the UK by traffickers when he was nine.
Mo reveals he was born Hussein Abdi Kahin in Somaliland and was given the name Mohamed Farah by the people who flew him over from Djibouti and was made to look after another family's children when he arrived in the UK.
