Peter Conlon had High Court freezing orders secured over his assets in a case concerning €3.8 million in missing charity donations, reported on 9 February 2018. The court heard that the money had been contributed through Pembroke Dynamic, the online donation platform he managed.

The liquidator said more than 700 charities had been contacted during the investigation, while Conlon remained detained in Zurich following a complaint concerning donations. The report said the presumption of innocence applied, and recorded allegations that the missing funds may have been used for company operations and personal expenditure.

This report covers an earlier stage of the case. Later developments are not reported here.
