    Looks like someone has eventually got their finger out when it comes to white collar crime.
    Suspended jail sentence for businessman

    A Dublin businessman who has already served a two-week sentence for failing to comply with court orders requiring him to disclose information about large sums of money he was given to invest received another two-week sentence at the High Court yesterday.

    However, the latest term was suspended for seven days to enable Thomas O'Keeffe to deal with court orders in relation to the provision of documents. In evidence yesterday, Mr O'Keeffe said his business was "finished entirely" as a result of publicity surrounding the legal proceedings.

    Mr O'Keeffe said he had had a very substantial business in trading in commodities and in buying and selling securities and shares.
