Sikh charity co-founder jailed for stealing nearly £50,000, used funds for personal debts.

Rajbinder Kaur, 55, was jailed for 2 years and 8 months for stealing nearly £50,000 from Sikh Youth UK, a charity she co-founded with her brother, Kaldip Singh Lehal, in 2016. Kaur used the stolen funds for personal expenses and to pay off debts, hiding the money across over 50 accounts. Lehal received a four-month suspended sentence. The Charity Commission closed the charity's registration bid due to lack of information, leading to the investigation.
