Two Indians jailed in UK for car scam


Two Indian PhD students in the UK who carried out an elaborate car sale scam in the east Midlands, have been jailed and face deportation to India after completing their sentence.

Zubair Ansari and Sharif- Uddin duped unsuspecting buyers out of thousands of pounds.

They sold cars whose mileage meters were turned back, carried forged certificates, bogus service histories and false hire purchase reports.

Ansari, 33, has been jailed for 18 months after being convicted by the Leicester Crown Court of conspiracy to carry on a business for fraudulent purposes and Uddin, 33, was jailed for 12 months.
