Cork city councillor Kenneth Collins and TD Thomas Gould are facing inquiries related to an alleged business fraud. Collins, who attended a meeting with gardaí and fully cooperated, maintains his innocence. Gould, undergoing treatment for bowel cancer, also asserts his innocence regarding a complaint from a former employer. He expressed outrage at the allegation, emphasizing that the complaint is a serious threat to his reputation and that he proactively sought a swift interview with gardaí to defend himself.
Despite my ongoing treatment for bowel cancer, I pro-actively requested that my interview with gardai happen quickly rather than when my treatment concluded, as I consider this to be a serious attack on my reputation.
He was given an invitation to attend. He accepted the invitation and he kept the appointment. He co-operated fully... and was released without being charged.
