Dublin life on the front page". T F+ Our client is not, as your article alleges, a convicted "paedophile". Although he Pastan, has been convicted of soliciting prostitutes, and procuring a person under 18 for Paul Tweed LIS • prostitution, he has served his time for that offence. As a matter of record, but Michael McKee Ken Chambers without seeking to justify the offence, the girls in question were not pre- David Craig pubescent. David Holley Selena Kerins John McMahon Furthermore, the false and distorted terminology used by you to describe our Consultants client in your vitriolic attack on his character is simply not true on any John Marshall interpretation of the word "paedophile". He has not been convicted nor been David Rogers accused of being a paedophile (a pejorative that has a very specific medical Solldtors definition), apart from by certain elements of the tabloid press in their recent George Stiahan reports on his friendship with Prince Andrew. Our client however should be Sarah Loughran Alison McClung entitled to expect more accurate and credible reporting from a respected Carl Rooney publication such as the TATLER, which is supposed to have significantly higher Gareth Liddy Jennifer Greenfield standards than the sensationalised and exaggerated reporting of the tabloids. lames Ead John Ken Kathy Mathews Our client is entitled, at the very least, to the publication of a categoric Bnan Connolly clarification and apology, in terms to be first agreed with us, as a matter of some Alex Trimble Rhys Jones urgency. We would therefore be grateful to receive your proposals in this Deaglan Lundy regard, while our client continues to reserve all his rights including appropriate Mark Kernaghan Laura Cunningham redress in relation to your defamatory allegations and malicious falsehoods. • Paul Tubed a membet et Paul 'Netted LLP 3 also tertneil as a Runup Rept Consultant by On Suit en of CaltIonna winejobasonslaw,com &plated by the SCIICITOR Regulation Antionty Firm SRA ID 544350 Paul Two.'
