Another €10,000 has been raised by a man who defrauded the Cork-based animal welfare charity Cat Haven of €27,500 two years ago.

The accused man Owen Collins of Mountain Barracks, Mitchelstown, County Cork, previously brought €10,000 to Cork Circuit Criminal Court and now he has doubled that amount.
