He used the cheque to pay for a car knowing there were no funds in the account. Alexander, the son of the 4th Viscount of Trenchard did much the same with his Tesco company credit card running up a bill of st£350,000 to pay for his loss-making music festival at the family seat in Hertfordshire. His family paid the cash back to Tesco, but he also got 30 months in jail. Read here.
