Cases
latest first- Pair jailed for conspiracy in learner permit fraud in Dublin Conspiracy (learner permit fraud) · Co. Dublin
A group of five individuals in Dublin posed as learner drivers to sit the driver theory test on behalf of third parties, with 124 incidents identified between 14 September 2019 and 29 June 2021. Alina Glont, a 42-year-old woman from Finglas, and Daniel Stepien, a 29-year-old man from Clonsilla, were part of the scheme in which third parties paid between €1,000 and €2,000 per test. Glont was arrested at her home on 18 June 2024 as part of a Garda National Economic Crime Bureau investigation that began in March 2021, and both were charged with two counts of conspiracy. They pleaded guilty at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on 29 January 2025 and were sentenced the following day, with Glont receiving two and a half years and Stepien 32 months.
