IGB chairman accused of block on internal probe

One of the Irish Greyhound Board’s chief internal investigators has accused its chairman of attempting to obstruct an inquiry into a race-fixing scam.

The investigator has been on extended sick leave since the incident. He is also the company’s internal auditor.

In March, he emailed the chairman, Phil Meaney, to say details had been withheld from his team and notes had not been shared.
