Apprentice star Tre Azam has been a naughty boy apparently, and he’s charged with falsely claiming housing and tax benefits.
The courts have accused Azam of receiving £7,500 in benefits while working for marketing consultancy firm IDMM Ltd.
The 29-year-old, who finished third in the 2007 “Apprentice” reality show, was able to get some benefits legally in August 2004 when he was unemployed.
Council investigators however say that Azam never let them know about his earnings at IDMM between October 2005 and August 2006.
He is also accused of using bank accounts in the names of family members without informing them.
“He used them to pay his mobile bill, his car insurance as well as everyday items such as food and clothing,” said prosecutor Giles Atkinson.
Hm.. It appears he has a penchant for money… How odd for a media darling..
