The Kinahan cartel: How one of the world's most wanted men is living 'opulently' in Dubai

Christopher Kinahan is the head of a billion dollar international crime cartel and one of the world’s most wanted men but he’s been sharing his whereabouts and opinions through Google reviews. What is the normally security conscious man doing, and could the information ultimately lead to his capture?

Guest: John Mooney, crime and security correspondent, Sunday Times Ireland.

Host: Calum Macdonald.

Clips: Raidió Teilifís Éireann, US State Department.

They can get Saddam and Osama but they can't get a man leaving Google reviews in restaurants 🤦🏻‍♂️

The location of the Kinihans has always been known. This is nothing new. The reward on offer is for information leading to their conviction, it's not for their location.

Really annoying how the investigator keeps pronouncing Dubai as ‘Jubai’. No wonder the Irish haven’t been able to catch him!

someone is writing these for him a a decoy. No way is it him leaving a trace

[ConradWalsh]

Like HE himself is leaving reviews. My 4 year old doesn't even buy it!
What complete and utter TOSH.

really enjoyed this - thanks for the content

So, you haven't caught him, why this click bait post.

How To Catch A Wanted Man: publicly tell the media everything the authorities know about him and his whereabouts, as well as provide current updates about police progress - thus keeping the criminal himself updated on their progress?! Oh bravo 🙌

He's got enough money to keep the right palms greased. Plain and simple he's not worried about deportation or extradition! Without the right leverage or pressure applied he'll be just fine.

Interesting as far as detective work goes.
But if they really wanted to hurt organised crime and improve health, there is only one solution:
Legalise and regulate the drugs trade!

The video is not play stuck on one frame?

Its surprising these professional investigators havnt understood criminals are not necessarily any different than us. They are simply businessmen who deal in illegal goods... they have thoughts, emotions, family, and dreams...as well as his career. What we do for our work or how we act at work is not who we are.

Unless saudi Arabia is willing to expedite him, hes perfectly safe from the law.

Makes sense when fury is over there an looks coked up 😂

[thankyouinadvance.yourfutu]

Hes not leaving all these feedbacks in restaurants ffs: Cmon be real... 😅😅

Sounds to me like those reviews are used as secret massages as a means to communicate with his cartelmembers.

The UAE really doesn't want to give up the Kinahans. I find it a bit odd. Several months ago, there was talk of them relocating to Iran but there they are still wandering around Dubai. Meanwhile, there are Garda officers stationed there twiddling their thumbs. C'mon Ireland and UAE, get your acts together.

Interesting how the 'so-called Dubai Govt'. speaks and behaves as if they're running a tight ship. yet here we are again allowing criminal elements to operate freely on their own turf.

[eltinmccarthy]

Very impressive what you can achieve if you put your mind to it. Wish the Kinahans could have applied their management skills to fixing this country.
If the Irish government was concerned about criminality they would not have invited the worlds criminals into Ireland no passport required.

Dubai is shelter for this kind of activities recent years.

He’s giving Google reviews from the toro bora caves 😂
