A PSNI officer based in Enniskillen has this week admitted 15 counts of fraud by false representation.

David John Lowe (34), whose address was given as PSNI Enniskillen, Queen Street, Enniskillen, pleaded guilty to submitting a series of false expenses claims on dates between March 22, 2013 and April 3 last year.

While the defendant did not appear in person before Fermanagh Magistrates Court on Monday, his barrister, Steffan Rafferty, entered guilty pleas on his behalf.

β€œIt’s a case that would require a pre-sentence report,” Mr Rafferty added.

A Public Prosecution Service (PPS) representative requested a six-week adjournment in the case to allow for the preparation of the report, given the August bank holiday.

Deputy district judge, Terence Dunlop, adjourned the case for sentencing on Monday, September 28.
