Ex-council chief unlikely to face retrial on corruption charges

George Redmond is unlikely to ever again face criminal charges of corruption after walking free from a court yesterday.

The 83-year-old was cleared on one charge of corruption but the jury "disagreed" on another, meaning the case could still be re-run at a later date.

But sources told the Irish Independent last night it was "almost certain" the Director of Public Prosecutions would now let the matter rest.
