Three men have appeared in court accused of distraction burglaries at Kingston cash machines.
All three are accused of charges connected to stealing bank cards from people in Kingston and Tolworth and taking up to £300 cash at a time.
Between them they are alleged to have taken £1,710 in cash in total in separate incidents at HSBC, Halifax, Lloyds TSB, and Santander branches between January and February this year.
Abdul Malik, 21, of East Ham, Kurush Miah, 20, of Tower Hamlets, and Amir Naim, 21, of Newham, appeared at Kingston Magistrates’ Court on May 11 and their case was committed to Kingston Crown Court for a hearing on June 9 after the court declined jurisdiction.
None of them have yet entered a plea.
