Wicklow Man Goes On Trial For Stealing €27 Million From Financial Institutions

A Wicklow man has gone on trial accused of stealing €27 million from seven financial institutions between 2005 and 2007.

Michael Lynn, with an address at Millbrook Court in Redcross denies twenty-one counts of theft during that two-year period.

It is the prosecution's case that he did so by applying for multiple mortgages on the same properties.

Due to the expected length of the trial, a specially enlarged jury of fifteen has been sworn in to hear it.

It’s expected to open on Wednesday.
