A BANK cashier who transferred customers’ money to the bank accounts of friends and family has been jailed for two years.
Lakhwinder Kaur, of Station Road, Hayes, gave away nearly £90,000 using colleagues’ network log-in details for the transactions before managers at Barclays in High Street, Uxbridge, became aware of the scam.
Kaur, 32, appeared at the Old Bailey on Friday for sentencing on five counts of fraud by abuse of position. She was sentenced to two years for each offence, to run concurrently
Kaur had denied the charges but was found guilty after a trial in October.
The court heard that she had wired money to four people, but only Nirmaljit Singh, 27, of Admiralty Close, West Drayton, was traced and charged.
Singh was convicted of money laundering and acquiring criminal property and was sentenced to a year’s jail in December.
