about 9 hours ago
Political activist Ben Gilroy has lost his appeal aimed at overturning injunctions restraining him publishing unsubstantiated allegations that Start Mortgages DAC or its legal advisers were “perpetrating a fraud” arising from the lender seeking possession of his family home over a debt of some €500,000.
The injunctions also restrained him “arresting”; publishing the home addresses of officers, agents or employees of Start; giving legal advice or assistance concerning Start; and required him to remove certain online content referring to Start.
