A FORMER Tower Hamlets councillor and his younger brother have admitted pilfering £30,000 from a council-backed East End children’s programme.

Nasir Uddin, ex-Labour councillor for the St Dunstan’s and Stepney ward, and his younger brother, Ain Uddin, dramatically changed their pleas today (Weds) at Southwark Crown Court in a fraud trial also involving Kumar Murshid, a serving member of Tower Hamlets council and a former top advisor to London Mayor Ken Livingstone.
