Musical benefits fraudster handed fine

A musician has been fined after admitting benefits fraud.

49 year old Stewart Gray of The Park in Onchan appeared before Deputy High Bailiff Rachael Braidwood at Douglas Courthouse.

He admitted two counts of benefits fraud.

The court heard he'd wrongly claimed £1,908 in benefits after he didn't declare performing as "Shades of Gray" at Sam Webbs, The Front Porch, 1886, and The Railway.

He was put on probation for a year, and ordered to pay £50 prosecution costs.
