A 63-YEAR-OLD man is due to appear in court accused of making false statements to obtain Universal Credit housing payments.
Constantin Ivan, of Warwick Square, Carlisle, faces two charges of dishonestly making a false statement to obtain a benefit, advantage or payment.
The charges allege that Ivan falsely told the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) that he had a rental liability for the property he had declared he lived at.
One charge relates to an alleged statement made in Carlisle on May 15, 2023, while the second concerns an alleged statement on April 8, 2024.
