Lowry faces grilling over cover-up allegations

FORMER Fine Gael Minister Michael Lowry will be grilled today over alleged attempts to cover-up his role in a property deal linked to business tycoon Denis O'Brien.

Moriarty Tribunal lawyers believe they have uncovered false documents aimed at concealing Mr Lowry’s link to a £445,000 property transaction.

The development means key evidence heard by the tribunal will have to be revisited and may set back its investigations by anything up to a year.
