Four people were found guilty at Sheffield Crown Court for their part in a \u00a3500,000 fraud conspiracy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The gang, described by Police as a “a professionally-planned, highly-organised group”,\u00a0deliberately crashed a 12 tonne bus with 26 passengers on board.<\/p>\n

Seven other people had already pleaded guilty to their part in the conspiracy.<\/p>\n
