Tycoon ‘has no interest in Jurys’

PROPERTY developer Bernard McNamara who is behind the takeovers of the Shelbourne Hotel and Superquinn, has ruled himself out of a tilt for Jurys Doyle.

A spokesman for Mr McNamara said the millionaire was not the person behind the approach for Jurys and had no interest in the firm.

Jurys shares rose again yesterday after confirmation late on Monday that the hotel group had received a takeover offer.
