Couple jailed for massive car insurance fraud

Elina Jaksone and Gagik Manucharyan have been jailed for five years after setting up a "ghost" brokerage firm that saw customers conned into parting with cash in exchange for cheap car insurance.

Hundreds of motorists paid £100 each in commission to the couple, which resulted in a profit of around £920,000 that was used to put one of their children through public school.
