Mother jailed for making children have surgery so she could claim benefits | UK news | The Guardian

'A mother who lied about her children being ill, forcing them to have surgery as part of a plan to falsely claim benefits, has been jailed for seven-and-a-half years. '

'She forced her children to fake symptoms of illnesses, ranging from asthma to autism and urology problems, to secure her benefits. '

'The woman’s lies, which spanned a decade, allowed her to claim more than £375,000 in benefits, before she was arrested by police in 2013. '

'She lied at every opportunity, presenting herself as a lone parent coping with ill and vulnerable children. '

'She was convicted last month of cruelty, fraud, making a false representation and obtaining money transfer by deception. '
