A gambling addiction caused a supermarket store manager to “put his hand in the till” and take cash totalling €81,750 — but through hard work and determination he has repaid the money in full.
Prosecution barrister Donal McCarthy acknowledged that in his experience as a prosecutor for many years, it was exceptional to see such a large sum of money repaid in full by an accused person.
