350 quizzed in Anglo Irish Bank probe

MORE than 350 people have been questioned as part of the investigation into Anglo Irish Bank but there is little hope of anybody ending up behind bars any time soon.

Justice Minister Dermot Ahern, in detailing the problems encountered, said 115,000 emails and documents had been seized. There had been a number of arrests.

One person who was questioned made a written statement that ran to 150 pages. And there are now 10 distinct lines of inquiry.
