An actress accused of illegally sub-letting her north London council house while living in a converted Warwickshire barn has appeared in court.
Sliding Doors star Evelyn Duah, 44, who has also appeared in TV’s Liar; The Bill; Silent Witness; My Family; Doctors; Hustle and Holby City denies the charge.
She appeared at Brent Magistrates Court charged with one count of dishonestly sub-letting her two-bedroom council flat in Link Road, Southgate between August 6, 2013 and April 27, this year.
Barnet Council say she was living at The Granary, Camp Hill Farm, Kites Nest Lane, Beausale while allowing various people, including her brother, to reside at the flat.
They have estimated their cost of placing a family in temporary accommodation for this period at £60,144.
Duah, who gave the Southgate flat as her address in court, gave ‘no comment’ responses when questioned by investigators.
She faces a maximum sentence of two years imprisonment if convicted.
Duah was bailed to appear at Harrow Crown Court on January 2.
