The former deputy director of prison counselling charity Forensic Therapies has been awarded £47,580 in compensation after she blew the whistle on the alleged theft of nearly £300,000.

Robina Husain-Naviatti alerted trustees that a £535,000 grant to the charity in 2008 had been recorded as £240,000. She was dismissed in 2010 and the charity is now in liquidation.
