Money-laundering accused gives evidence

The Cork man accused of money-laundering gave direct evidence from the witness box today for the first time in his 34-day trial at Cork Circuit Criminal Court.

Ted Cunningham (aged 60) of Woodbine Lodge, Farran, denies 20 charges of money-laundering in a case that arises out of the investigation of the robbery of £26.5m (€28.6m) from the Northern Bank in Belfast on December 20, 2004.
