Denis Leyne

The Senior Vice President of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Denis Leyne was removed from his position in 1991 after he was investigated for his links to Sean John McCann, who had been charged with trying to purchase a Stinger missile for the Provisional Irish Republican Army. The following year, Leyne was arrested himself as part of a 1992 investigation that alleged that four citizens of the Republic of Ireland had conspired to ship detonators to the Provos. Due to a massive heart attack, he died less than a year after his acquittal.
