Defiant Dunne ‘is not afraid to face justice’

BEN DUNNE slammed the Moriarty Report as “profoundly flawed” as he rejected findings that he was corrupt and challenged the tribunal to hand him over to the DPP for criminal investigation.

The businessman claimed the report contained “lies” about him, in particular in relation to the conclusion that he attempted with Michael Lowry to influence a rent review that would have doubled the rent and value of one of his former properties, Marlborough House, at the expense of the taxpayer.

“I am not a corrupt person and if anyone can prove that I did anything corrupt in that Marlborough deal, or in any other deal in fact, they should put me where I should be — behind bars. I am not afraid to face justice.”
