Major General Nick Welch, 54, allegedly claimed his wife Charlotte was living at the  London residence he moved into upon staring a top job at the Ministry of Defence.
It meant he was eligible for an Army allowance towards his children s education that is given to servicemen on remote assignments, provided that the family is living with them.

The neighbour complained that - despite he and his wife Charlotte claiming to be living together in their London home - the couple were rarely there at the same time.
This meant they were allegedly in breach of rules allowing them to claim public money for their children s school fees. ....
