Ex-Dragon's Den investor Sarah Newman adjudicated bankrupt in the UK, court told

Businesswoman and former Dragons’ Den investor Sarah Newman was recently adjudicated bankrupt in the UK, the Commercial Court has heard.

Ms Newman was due to be cross-examined before Mr Justice Brian McGovern in court yesterday as part of AIB Mortgage Bank’s efforts to execute a €9m judgment obtained by it in 2011 against her and her former partner, hurling legend DJ Carey.

In light of the bankruptcy of Ms Newman, James Doherty, counsel for the bank, said it was not proceeding with the cross-examination.
