Summary

In the Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, the prosecution concluded its evidence in the trial of three former Anglo Irish Bank officials accused of concealing accounts from the Revenue as part of a tax‑evasion scheme. The accused—Tiarnan O'Mahoney (56), Bernard Daly (67) and Aoife Maguire (62)—have pleaded not guilty to seven counts. O'Mahoney denied ever instructing a subordinate to remove a name from a list of accounts supplied to the Revenue, and denied that he had asked team leader Zita Madden to do so. He also denied telling former head of compliance Brian Gillespie to omit the account of John Peter O'Toole, Mr FitzPatrick's brother‑in‑law, from a list. The prosecution's evidence, which has lasted 23 days, included interviews, emails and a loan facility letter. The jury will hear later this week whether the defence intends to call witnesses. The trial continues before Judge Patrick McCartan and a jury of twelve.
