Dunne regrets making life difficult for Irish
By applying for bankruptcy in the US, Mr Dunne, 58, who owes the banks anything up to €1bn, can emerge from bank-ruptcy after just 12 months, compared to being discharged after three years the earliest in Ireland.
“Unlike Jesus, I don’t expect to rise again in three days but certainly hope to make great strides within the next three years, debt-free, with a clean slate and with my fate back in my own hands,” he wrote in a Sunday newspaper.
