O’Brien: ‘I don’t know how tribunal got this far’

DENIS O’BRIEN concluded his evidence to the Moriarty Tribunal yesterday with a further rebuke of the inquiry’s legal team.

The telecoms tycoon branded the 10-year-old inquiry a waste of time as he again stated his innocence of allegations that he had made a corrupt payment to former minister Michael Lowry.

Mr O’Brien pointed out that he was the 12th witness in the Doncaster Rovers module, none of whom had ever given any evidence to suggest that Mr Lowry was involved in the acquisition of the club.
