Anglo jury resumes deliberations

The jury in a fraud trial of three Anglo Irish Bank directors over a multimillion loans-for-shares scheme has resumed deliberations.

Sean FitzPatrick, 65, from Greystones, Co Wicklow; Pat Whelan, 51, of Malahide, Co Dublin, and William McAteer, 63, of Rathgar, Dublin, all pleaded not guilty to providing unlawful financial assistance to a hand-picked group of clients in July 2008 to buy shares.
