O’Brien ordered to repay €1.85m to brother-in-law
The repayment order was not opposed by O’Brien who, in an email to Bernard Lambilliotte last December, had written: “My regret for what I have subjected to you does not decrease but instead I feel nothing but increasing shame.”
Mr Lambilliotte, managing director of London investment firm Ecofin, said in an affidavit that until December last, he had completely trusted his brother-in-law and had “no idea that there would be any difficulty in securing repayment of these monies.”
