Jury sworn in for trial of former Anglo exec on conspiracy charge

Summary

A jury of eight women and four men was sworn in for the trial of Tiarnan O'Mahoney, 58, a former Chief Operations Officer at Anglo Irish Bank. He has pleaded not guilty to a conspiracy charge alleging that he conspired to destroy, mutilate or falsify books and documents relating to Anglo Irish Bank's property or affairs between 25 March 2003 and 31 December 2004, involving several named accounts. O'Mahoney, now a business consultant living in Glen Pines, Enniskerry, denies the charge. Judge Martin Nolan of the Dublin Circuit Criminal Court explained that the trial is expected to last four to six weeks and that anyone with an association to the bank or who could not act impartially should not serve. He warned the jury against researching the case online. The prosecution is represented by Dominic McGinn SC and Kerida Naidoo SC, while O'Mahoney's defence is led by Brendan Grehan SC with Lorcan Staines BL and Edward Doocy BL.
