A convicted fraudster who “duped” two men and a garda into buying stolen cars from him has been sentenced to three years consecutive to a four-year term he is already serving for a similar crime.

Mark Kelly (aged 33) was not the mastermind behind the operation, but received cash sums for selling an Audi to a garda for €18,000, a BMW to a French national for €26,000 and a Volkswagon Golf to a third man for €17,000.
