Suspended sentences for two men found guilty of money-laundering

A bundle of €12,200 in cash wrapped in tinfoil and tied with black hairbands was found in a man’s pocket when gardaí were called to a domestic incident in Ballincollig.

Garda Shane Halligan said that when the man with the cash was arrested at the height of a drunken row, another man arrived on the scene and tried to retrieve the stash from his friend’s pocket.
