Vincent Kelly was jailed for money laundering on 21 June 2022, when Judge Melanie Greally imposed a three-year term with the final 18 months suspended.

Kelly had pleaded guilty to money laundering at his address on January 16th, 2021. The proceedings were reported on 21 June 2022.

The case involved €112,000 in a customised taxi compartment, although the judge noted the money was not for Kelly’s use and he acted as a courier.

The reports said Kelly co-operated and showed remorse; the defence accepted he had no proprietary interest and moved the money for others.

Judge Greally also ordered confiscation of the taxi and a Rolex watch.
