Two jailed Anglo chiefs ‘did not receive fair trial’

Two former Anglo Irish Bank executives convicted of conspiring to conceal or alter bank accounts being sought by Revenue did not receive a fair trial, the Court of Appeal was told yesterday.

Former chief operations officer Tiarnan O’Mahoney and former company secretary Bernard Daly are appealing their convictions.

O’Mahoney, who was second in command at the bank, received a three-year sentence. Daly was sentenced to two years.
