Staten Island woman scammed Medicaid out of $47,000 while living in $2 million mansion and driving around in a Rolls Royce.
Hasime Lika, 34, allegedly said she had no income while she received benefits between 2006 and 2011. During that time, she lived with her common-law husband and owns a $2.4 million home, prosecutors charged Thursday.

A Staten Island woman is accused of collecting Medicaid benefits while living large in a new, multi-million dollar, swimming pool-equipped home and cruising around in a luxury Rolls Royce.
Hasime Lika, 34, allegedly claimed no income or assets when she signed up to the health assistance program in 2006, getting payments totaling $47,000 through 2011.
During that time, she lived with Bill Lika, her common-law husband and father of her two children, said assistant district attorney Joel Greenwald.

Bill Lika is a landlord who owns at least 14 apartment buildings, had assets exceeding $5 million, and in 2007 purchased a $2.4 million house in State Island's tony Todt Hill neighborhood, prosecutors charged.
The home had a swimming pool and a three-car garage where "a Rolls Royce and a Mercedes-Benz were observed regularly parked," Greenwald said in Brooklyn Supreme Court.

"This case is an egregious example of an individual who lied to the system by hiding income and a plethora of luxurious resources," said Robert Doar, Commissioner of the Human Resources Administration.
Hasime Lika, who sources said is pregant, was charged with welfare fraud and grand larceny that can result in up to seven years in prison. She pleaded not guilty and released without bail.
Her husband was not charged.

Lika and her lawyer Scott Klein declined to comment.
