Dunne and Haughey to give evidence to Mahon

FORMER supermarket boss Ben Dunne — who admitted giving the late Taoiseach Charles J Haughey up to £2 million — is due to give evidence to the Mahon Tribunal now investigating the rezoning of land near Dublin Airport.

It emerged recently that Mr Haughey’s son, Ciaran, had an interest in the Cargobridge consortium which acquired 24 acres at Cloghran in north Co Dublin in 1991.

Mr Dunne previously testified before the McCracken and Moriarty tribunals on his payments to Charles Haughey. He will give evidence to the Mahon Tribunal on October 3.
