A DERRY politician cleared on benefit fraud charges today has said he is delighted with the result.
Cllr Colly Kelly says he should never have faced the court in the first place.
Commenting after his acquittal in court this afternoon Councillor Colly Kelly said:“I welcome today’s court decision to acquit me.
“On being made aware that I was in breach of DHSS rules, I took immediate action to address the situation.
“In my opinion these proceedings were totally unnecessary and the decision of the court today reflects that.
“The court has adjudicated on the issue and vindicated my position.”
