Two former Anglo Irish bank chiefs have been found guilty of making loans designed to illegally prop up the bank's share price.

They are Pat Whelan, 52, former head of lending in Ireland and Willie McAteer, 63, the bank's former finance director.

Both men had denied the charges at Dublin Criminal Court.

On Wednesday, the bank's former chairman was cleared of illegally supporting the bank's share price.
