Trial of three former Anglo officials due to begin this afternoon

Summary

The trial of three former Anglo Irish Bank officials – Aoife Maguire (60), Bernard Daly (65) and Tiarnan O'Mahoney (54) – is set to begin in the Dublin Circuit Criminal Court. They face charges of deceiving the Revenue and destroying or falsifying bank records related to a named account, allegedly committed in 2003 and 2004. All three plead not guilty. The trial, expected to run until the end of July, was adjourned last week after a shortage of jurors. A female juror was discharged due to a family medical condition, and another withdrew after revealing a professional connection to a firm that shares clients with Anglo Irish Bank. The court has imposed strict restrictions on jurors, excluding those with strong feelings about Anglo, connections to the bank, the Revenue, Ernst & Young or the auditing sector. The trial will open this afternoon before Judge Patrick McCartan with a jury of six women and six men.
