Well, depends
You can quite legally work for a different employer whilst on mat leave and receiving SMP - not sure what the rules are for SM Allowance which is paid if you don't qualify for SMP
Was there any other benefit involved such as income support?
Cash in hand work should be declared to the tax man, so the law has been broken there is it wasn't declared
