Owen Travers was given a two-and-a-half-year suspended sentence for theft at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court. The proceedings were reported on 10 October 2016. He had pleaded guilty to 15 counts of theft from seven customers over a number of years. Travers worked as an assistant manager at AIB in Clondalkin between 2006 and 2012.

Judge Sinéad Ní Chúlacháin suspended the sentence for five years, subject to conditions including keeping the peace and being of good behaviour. The court heard that Travers had stolen more than €127,400, although the total monetary loss to victims was just under €90,000 because he moved money between accounts. The judge accepted that all the money had been repaid to the bank.
