There is “no need” for an internal Sinn Féin investigation into Cork TD Thomas Gould following an arrest by gardaí over alleged fraud last week, the party has said.

The Cork North-Central TD was arrested on Friday for questioning in relation to €150,000 worth of business fraud from more than a decade ago.
