BOTHAR S former CEO David Moloney stole significant quantities of cash donated to the charity to fund his lifestyle over a 21-year period, the High Court has heard.
Mr Moloney, in a sworn statement to the court, says he that he was generous with the cash which he spent on things such as family holidays, on his friends, but never lodged the monies in the bank nor has he kept any of the cash taken.
He also claims that much of what was misappropriated was paid to others, including the late Bothar founder Peter Ireton, and says that his wife Olive did not knowingly benefit from the monies he took, and was never given any of the cash he took.
