  • Man's fake passport and PUP payments case struck out at Longford District Court Theft; use of a false instrument · Co. Longford

    Kevin Almedia Da Silva, a Brazilian man, was charged with using a false passport to obtain a PPS number at the Department of Social Protection in Ballina, Co Mayo, on January 11, 2018, and with possession of a false passport on February 26, 2021. He also faced five counts of stealing €1,200 payments under the Pandemic Unemployment Payment scheme, relating to Bank of Ireland in Ballina between April 6 and May 25, 2021. Garda Jim Donaldson said the defendant was arrested in May 2023 after an investigation into false PUP payments. At Longford District Court in June 2023, his solicitor said he had pleaded guilty from an early stage, and the judge struck the matter out without conviction after accepting a €1,000 donation to Lus na Gréine.
