A MAN who admitted carrying out a string of robberies against men he met on gay chatlines will be sentenced today.

Unemployed Adil Zahid, 27, of Walthamstow, appeared at Wood Green Crown Court, in Lordship Lane, last month to plead guilty to four counts of robbery, one theft of a motor vehicle and one count of false imprisonment.

The offences took place between June and August 2009 at several locations in Tottenham and another in east London.

Visit the Guardian's website later today for the outcome of the sentencing.
