A London council tenant who for a period of seven years failed to disclose that he owned three houses, has been given a suspended sentence and ordered to pay over £80,000.
Jamir Hussain of north London was sentenced to two years imprisonment suspended for two years, fined £10,000, ordered to pay £73,767 in compensation, as well as Camden council’s costs of £4,745.
The fraud came to light when Hussain applied to purchase his Camden council flat; council tenants must inform the council if they own any property, but Hussain failed to do so.
