Morgan confirms giving €5k cheque to Gallagher

The businessman Hugh Morgan has admitted in a statement that he gave presidential candidate Sean Gallagher a €5,000 cheque for Fianna Fáil in June 2008, a few days before a party fundraiser.
The businessman, who received a suspended sentence in a Belfast court in the late 1990s for fuel smuggling and tax evasion, said Mr Gallagher had called to his business premises in Co Armagh to collect the cheque.
