Xahra Saleem spent more than £30,000 in donations earmarked for charity to
fund her lifestyle.
The 23-year-old thief helped mastermind the headline-grabbing BLM demo
in Bristol during in June 2020 which saw slave trader Colston's statue
toppled and dumped in the harbour.
The BLM organiser received £32,344 in donations raised from 558 silly individual
contributions. She went on to spend the money earmarked for local charities
to fund her lifestyle - from her rent, hair and beauty appointments, and
takeaways, to a new iPhone, iMac and Amazon purchases. Bristol Crown
Court heard that she even splurged nearly £6,000 on Uber rides.
Judge Michael Longman said the activist's victims included the young people
she promised to help, telling the court: 'Your dishonest behaviour continued
for a substantial amount of time.
