Prosecution has 'failed to produce evidence' claims defence

The jury in the Ir£151,000 alleged insurance fraud conspiracy trial has been addressed by counsel for the prosecution and the defence on day-12 of the hearing at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

Mr Sean Guerin BL, for the prosecution, said the fraud audaciously framed and meticulously planned on "an accident that never happened" but was doomed to failure from the start due to the paper trail in motor taxation and insurance offices around the country.
