Pat Hickey Travelling Back To Ireland

Pat Hickey is reportedly on his way home from Brazil.

The former President of the Olympic Council of Ireland was pictured by the Irish Times boarding a flight last night.

The paper says he went through security at Rio’s international airport at 8.15pm local time.

The 71-year-old had been in Rio for four months awaiting trial for alleged ticket touting.

However a judge allowed him leave on medical grounds, after paying a €400,000 bail bond.
