Varadkar insists he did not commit any crime in relation to the “Leo the leak” debacle




The Tanaiste Leo Varadkar has spoken publicly about the whole “Leo the leak” controversy where he reportedly gave confidential government documentation to a friend.

He insists he did not commit any crime and awaits where the DPP will continue with the inquiry.

According to RTE, Varadkar said:
“I am very pleased that the garda investigation is now over. It was a very long and thorough one and at the end of it, there was no recommendation that there should be any charges,” he said.

“The matter is now with the DPP and we await a decision,” he told reporters during a trade mission in California.

“The allegations made against me were false, they were politically motivated,” he added.

“I did not commit any crime, I did not do anything corrupt, in fact I did not do anything self-interested and when this is over I think that will be clear to any reasonable person.
