Suspended term for ‘jobseeker’ fraudster
Garda Kevin Heffernan on secondment to the Department of Social Protection classified the crime as social welfare tourism.
Tomas Horak, 33, who is of no fixed address in Cork, denied the charges and explained a total of 25 flights by reference to his sick mother. He said he was visiting her and was also looking for jobs in Cork online while out of the country.
