A MAN found guilty of carrying out a £30,000 burglary was known to police under six aliases, a court heard.

Ian Sutherland Leverson-Gower stole a computer, jewellery, clothing and electrical items from a house in Wrensfield, Marlow, on April 4 last year.

Leverson-Gower, 28, formerly of Sandage Road, Lane End, was found guilty at Aylesbury Crown Court on Friday.

Prosecutor Jill Hurworth said a dining room window had been forced and fingerprints taken from the inside of the window matched those of the defendant.

The defendant claimed the fingerprint had got onto a windowsill at the burgled house innocently, when he claimed he went into the garden looking for a lost frisbee.

Initially Leverson-Gower, who during the trial was referred to as Mr Sutherland with his consent, had denied knowing where Wrensfield was and said at the time of the crime he had been at work.

But he then claimed that some days before the break-in he had been in the garden looking for a frisbee which friends had lost and said he may have touched a window frame but did not ever go into the house.

Defending, Justin Rouse told the court that the defendant's aliases involved the use of variations of his full name. He said Leverson-Gower had suffered various crises including the death of close relatives in recent years and psychiatric assistance when he was 12.

Judge David Morton Jack adjourned sentence for three weeks for reports and extended the defendant's bail with a condition that he continues to live at a probation hostel.
