Investigation

Two arrested over allegations of fraud at Irish broadcaster

Gardaí said that an investigation was ongoing.

TWO PEOPLE HAVE been arrested as part of an investigation into alleged fraud at a major Irish broadcaster. 

At least one of the people involved is believed to work at the broadcaster. 

It is believed that a significant amount of money was misplaced from the company over a number of years. 

The missing money was noticed when the employee was on leave, and management was informed. 

In a statement, gardaí confirmed that the investigation into the complaint made by a media organisation is ongoing. 

“Two people were arrested as part of the investigation. They have since been released without charge and a file will now be prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions,” the statement said. 

“No further information is available. Investigations are ongoing.”

The company has been contacted for comment.
