Ex-Anglo worker denies conspiracy

A former Anglo Irish Bank employee denied to gardaí that she was involved in a conspiracy to conceal bank accounts from Revenue as part of a tax evasion scheme.

Aoife Maguire, along with two former senior Anglo managers, is accused of holding back certain off-shore bank accounts connected to former chairman Sean FitzPatrick, from the Revenue and of trying to delete records of the accounts from the bank’s computer system.

Ms Maguire, aged 62, of Rothe Abbey, South Circular Rd, Kilmainham, Dublin; former chief operations officer Tiarnan O’Mahoney, 56, of Glen Pines, Enniskerry, Co Wicklow; and former company secretary Bernard Daly, aged 67, of Collins Avenue West, Whitehall, Dublin, have pleaded not guilty to seven counts at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.
