A MAN has been sent to the crown court charged with bank fraud.
Timothy Collins appeared in the dock at Reading Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, May 9.
The 60-year-old, formerly of North End, Newbury, and currently said to be of no fixed address, is accused of impersonating another in order to fraudulently transfer cash from their bank account in Windsor, Berkshire, between August 31, 2017, and June 23, 2020.
Mr North, who was legally represented by Rob Slinn, was told the case was so serious it could only be dealt with by a judge and, in the event of a trial, by a jury sitting at Reading Crown Court on a date to be fixed.
District judge Samuel Goozee meanwhile released him on bail with conditions.
