Airline to refer DJ’s case to British police

AER LINGUS is to ask the British authorities to investigate radio presenter Neil Prendeville for committing a lewd act on an Aer Lingus flight from London to Cork last October.

The move by Aer Lingus comes as it emerged that Cork 96FM chief executive Kieran McGeary told staff at the station that Mr Prendeville is scheduled to resume broadcasting the station’s flagship morning radio show on Monday next, after five months off-air.

Mr Prendeville is expected to do an hour-long interview with PJ Coogan on the station at 11am today.
