Welfare official denies claim he asked for oral sex
A Department of Social Protection official “absolutely and totally refutes” an allegation that he asked a woman for oral sex in return for her avoiding prosecution for fraud, Sligo Circuit Court heard yesterday. The woman who made the allegation denied in court that the case was “all about money”.
She admitted under cross-examination that she had lied three times on a form relating to a review of her lone parent’s allowance.
