Ghanaian ticket collector on the run

London, UK — Nena Dappah, aged 30, of Rycroft Road, Lewisham, has had a warrant issued for her arrest after fleeing to Ghana.

She was one of three crooked train ticket collectors busted in a ticket scam. Two have been jailed.

The pair bought tickets from machines using stolen credit cards and sold them on the black market.

Employees Gregory Akinyode, aged 40, and Gbadedo Ishola, aged 43, helped fleece South West Trains of £45,000 during the year-long scam.

They were sentenced at Southwark Crown Court on August 10.

Prosecutor James Norman said at least two other members of staff were involved.

Judge William Wood said Akinyode, of Mottisfont Road, Abbey Wood, was responsible for £12,777 of the fraud and jailed him for two years.

Ishola, of Charles Court, Avenue Road, Erith, responsible for transactions worth £2,070, was given a nine-month prison sentence.

Akinyode and Ishola admitted conspiracy to defraud South West Trains by issuing rail tickets using compromised bank cards between November 29, 2004, and September 7, 2005.

A confiscation hearing against both men is set for December 12.
