Anglo fraud trial jury to reconvene tomorrow

The jury in a fraud trial of three Anglo Irish Bank directors over a multimillion loans-for-shares scheme have not reached a verdict after two full day’s deliberation.
Sean FitzPatrick (aged 65) from Greystones, Co Wicklow, Pat Whelan (aged 51) of Malahide, Co Dublin, and William McAteer (aged 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.
