Three new jurors sworn in for FitzPatrick trial

Three new jurors have been sworn in for the trial of former Anglo Irish Bank chairman Seán FitzPatrick on charges of misleading the bank’s auditors about millions of euro in loans.

Last week, a specially enlarged jury panel of 15 had been sworn in at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court for the trial, which is expected to run for three months.

Yesterday, three of those jurors were excused and new jurors sworn in to replace them.
