A FORMER postman has been jailed after admitting a £30.000 benefit fraud.
Antonio Quissema of Carnarvon Road, Chingford, was "at the heart" of the conspiracy, which was believed to be linked to a wider £3.6 million scam, a court heard.
The 47-year-old father-of-four was handed a five and a half year prison sentence for forging stolen Giro cheques over three years at Stafford Crown Court.
Quissema pleaded guilty to six charges of conspiracy to defraud in December last year.
