A High Wycombe man charged with fraud in connection with a fish and chip shop has been made to wait after his case was delayed.

Jasvir Nizzar, 54, of The Spinney, has been charged with a count of fraud by false representation.

It is alleged that on April 28, 2020, the defendant fraudulently claimed to be in occupation of a fish and chip shop in a Covid-19 Business Grant form.

Nizzar has pleaded not guilty to the charge against him.
