Paul Di'Anno Jailed for Falsely Claiming Benefits

on March 12, 2011 @ 11:28

Contact Music reports that Paul Di'Anno has been jailed for nine months for benefit fraud, having confessed to swindling the British government out of £45,000 by claiming nerve damage in his back prevented him from working.

Judge Jane Miller QC said: "Your greed has cost this country a lot of money. The claims were for a long time and for a large cost... It took many years to track you down. In 2007 you performed at 69 venues, in 2006 you performed 67 times. I do not accept you only got expenses."
