Details of former Anglo Chairman's account changed after it was closed, trial hears

Summary

During a 2015 trial, it was revealed that several changes were made to the name and address details on former Anglo Irish Bank chairman Sean FitzPatrick's account in the bank's internal record system after the account was closed. The trial involved three Anglo officials—former company secretary Bernard Daly (65), former Chief Operations Officer Tiarnan O'Mahoney (54), and Aoife Maguire (60)—who pleaded not guilty to seven alleged offences committed in 2003 and 2004. They were accused of attempting to delete references to two accounts in the name of John Peter O'Toole, FitzPatrick's brother‑in‑law, from Anglo's Core Banking System (CBS) and of omitting O'Toole's name from a list provided to the Revenue Commissioners of people who held non‑resident accounts worth more than €100,000 in 1995. O'Mahoney and Maguire also denied trying to delete six other accounts connected to FitzPatrick from the CBS.
