Raj Kumar Brisa Besnath was found guilty by a district court last year on a charge of criminal breach of trust for pocketing the money entrusted to him by one "Maria Lloyd", and was sentenced to 13 months' jail. An investigation officer testified during his trial that the police believed Maria was a "phantom" and the people behind the transactions were a group of overseas scammers. Raj Kumar's lawyer, appealing to the High Court last Wednesday against the conviction, argued that the charge has not been proven because Maria is a fictitious person.
