Jury still to decide on corrupt payments case

The jury in the case against a former managing director of South Cork Enterprise Board who denies receiving corrupt payments for securing job creation grants for a company was sent to a hotel overnight as they have not yet reached a verdict.

Judge Con Muphy sent the six men and six women away to a Cork city hotel with members of An Garda Síochána and told them to return to continue their deliberations at 10am tomorrow.
