Christopher Humphrey
A FORMER publican who lied about his sales to evade £85,000 in VAT and Corporation Tax has been jailed for 18 months after an investigation by HM Revenue and Customs.
Christopher Humphrey, 53, manipulated till records so lower daily takings were recorded, and provided inaccurate information to his accountants.
He also lied about the amount of stock purchased when he was landlord of The Tudor Tavern in East Preston to try to hide the amount he was actually selling.
He now lives in George V Avenue, Worthing.
The fraud took place between August 2011 and June 2015.
