The Former Anglo Irish Bank CEO David Drumm has arrived back in Ireland.

His Aer Lingus flight from Boston landed at 5.14am this morning, and he's now being taken to the Bridewell Garda Station.

He's due to be charged with more than 30 criminal offences.

David Drumm stepped down as CEO of Anglo Irish Bank in December 2008 and moved to Boston with his family a few months later.

Just over a year ago, the DPP informed the US Department of Justice of her intention to charge him with over 30 offences following investigations by the Garda Bureau of Fraud Investigation and the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement.

They include charges of forgery, conspiracy to defraud and false accounting and are alleged to have taken place in the final years of his time as head of the former bank.

Once he’s formally charged, he’ll be brought before Dublin District Court.

He may apply for bail when that happens, and a full hearing will have to take place if there are any Garda objections to it.
