Syndicate suing former FF councillor over land deal

A one-time running mate of the Taoiseach Brian Cowen is being sued in the High Court for making a secret profit of €6m on a land deal.

Former Fianna Fáil Councillor Ger Killally put together a syndicate in 2006 to buy land in Co Offaly from his father in law for €10.6m.
