'Tainted' evidence delays sentencing in illegal dumping case
The sentencing of a waste disposal company and its director, hotelier Louis Moriarty, for illegal dumping in Co. Wicklow will be reheard after a judge ruled that evidence presented before her was "tainted".
Swalcliffe Ltd , trading as Dublin Waste, of East Wall Industrial Complex, Dublin 3, pleaded guilty, through solicitor Mr Vincent Shannon, to holding or disposing of waste in a manner that caused or was likely to cause environmental pollution on dates unknown between August 3, 2001 and October 22, 2001 at lands owned by Clifford Fenton at Coolnamadra, Donard.
