Ashley Singh Met Police

Police hunt for suspected serial fraudster who stole around €260,000 and failed to appear in court

He is wanted for questioning.

BRITISH POLICE HAVE released a photograph of a man they want to speak to in relation to fraud offences totalling around €260,000

Detectives from the London Met Police said Ashley Dominic Singh, 34 , stole numerous victim’s credit cards and mobile phone SIM cards to facilitate bank accounts takeovers.

Once accessed, fraudulent transactions – totaling £227,000  (around €260,000) – were made on high value goods such as jewellery, designer labels and electronic goods.

Singh and his accomplice, Tony Clarke, 30 were identified as suspects following a police investigation.

Singh was arrested on 1 November 2016 and charged on 7 June 2017 with conspiracy to commit fraud by false representation, possession of an article for use in fraud and transferring criminal property.

He failed to appear at Inner London Crown Court on 1 February and a warrant was issued for his arrest.
