A civil servant who secretly held multiple public sector jobs on full-time salaries has been found guilty of fraud.
Kashim Chowdhury, from east London, had five government jobs that overlapped in the spring of 2023. He fraudulently earned more than £284,000 of taxpayers’ money.
The prosecution accused the 56-year-old of ”deliberate, intentional dishonesty” and of ”exploiting the system”.
A jury at Southwark Crown Court found him guilty of nine counts of fraud, including making false representations and of making a dishonest gain.
