The now 26-year-old woman was before Letterkenny Circuit Court on money laundering charges related to sums totalling €3,000 which she allowed to pass through her Revolut account.

A former ATU Donegal student who admitted being reckless in allowing her Revolut account to be used for money laundering has received a deferred sentence.

Detective Garda Gerard McCready gave an outline of the case against Ms Balogun, who now lives and works in London.
He told how a sum of €3,000 came into Ms Balogun's Revolut account from the bank account of another person on various dates in June, 2020.
The money came in ten different instalments of €300.
The funds later left Ms Balogun's account and the bank account it was transferred to was closed in August 2020.
