Rehab and PR adviser to sue over Kelly claims

Rehab and its external PR adviser are to sue the author of a damning letter to the Dáil Public Accounts Committee over claims they are involved in potential “criminal wrongdoing” at the crisis-hit charity.

Separate statements to the Irish Examiner from the disability group and Michael Parker, a senior member of Insight Consultants, confirmed the latest twist in the Rehab drama last night.

Mr Parker's move relates to recent allegations made in the media by Mr Kelly.
