A MOTHER of two is facing a Crown Court trial over allegations she laundered cash stolen from a Royal Mail sorting office.

Sumu Pambele-Yagrim is also accused of over claiming on both housing benefit from Barnet Council and tax credits to the tune of more than £17,000.

Today she resident appeared at Hendon magistrates Court where the matter was referred up to the Crown Court.

The court was told Mrs Pambele-Yagrim was arrested at her home on May 14 and formally charged on July 23.
