Money-laundering accused gives further evidence

A Cork man being tried on money-laundering charges in a case arising from the 2004 Northern Bank robbery today told a court that a Garda chief had wanted him to "rubberstamp" the view that his business partner and former Bank of Scotland (Ireland) boss, Phil Flynn, was behind the crime.

However the accused, Ted Cunningham, said he was so tired and confused during interrogation that he would have agreed that Mother Teresa was his sister.
