Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Spanish cops knew Ross Monaghan and Eddie Lyons Jnr "well" Credit: Les Gallagher - The Sun Glasgow 2 The gangsters were shot at Monaghan's pub in Fuengirola But serious crime squad officers probing last Saturday's double hit were already aware of their links to Scotland's underworld. Reports in Spain revealed that investigators with the Udyco-Costa del Sol unit 'knew the deceased extremely well'. English language news outlet Sur said: 'They had no problem identifying them, despite them having no ID documents on their bodies. 'The officers were also aware that the two had been targets in previous murder attempts. "Officers fear that the violent clan war will continue, with more murders that could follow.' Eyewitnesses also told the publication of seeing Monaghan, 43, fleeing inside the bar after pal Lyons, 46, was shot at point blank range. It's understood he was trying to seek refuge in the toilets but was gunned down before he could get there. We told yesterday how sources claim Monaghan had a £250,000 price on his head. A Spanish drugs cartel linked to the south of England is said to have warned the Glasgow mobster that mystery figures wanted him dead over a debt. An insider said: 'People are shocked at how complacent he seems to have been — there is no doubt the shooter benefited from the element of surprise that night.' The FULL story of Scotland's biggest gangster Jamie 'The Iceman' Stevenson Coming This Sunday We revealed how Monaghan's family said the Lyons' Glasgow enemies, the Daniels, were not to blame. The Daniels and allies of Edinburgh cocaine kingpin Mark Richardson are under attack by hoods linked to Dubai-based Ross McGill, 31.

More info Police have made another arrest linked to the ongoing gang war in Edinburgh and Glasgow. Officers continue to crack down on those involved in a series of incidents in the east and west of the country linked to an underworld feud between Dubai-based Ross McGill and both Mark Richardson and the Daniel family. Following an alleged firebombing at the home of gangster Kevin 'Gerbil' Carroll's widow on May 13 on Drumchapel Road in Glasgow, a 20-year-old has been arrested and charged, reports the Record. Police made the arrest after a warrant was executed at an address in Glasgow two weeks after the incident. He appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court on May 30. The total number of arrests linked to the gang war is now 42. Detective Chief Superintendent Dave Ferry said: 'I want to be clear that violence will not be tolerated, and we will not stop until we bring those responsible to justice. 'We are still following positive lines of enquiry, and this arrest highlights our continued resolve to target organised crime. 'The support of our communities remains vital, and I want to again express my sincere thanks to the public for their continued help and information so far. 'If you know anything that could assist our ongoing investigation, please do the right thing and speak to us.'

Britain's gift to Putin

Photo byOn Wednesday, Volodymyr Zelensky announced that Russia has now used more than 27,000 aerial bombs, more than 11,000 armed drones and thousands more guided munitions to attack Ukraine. Among the victims of this week's attacks were an emergency worker, his wife and their one-year-old grandson, the 632nd child killed in Ukraine since Russia's invasion. And yet British businesses continue to enable the Russian state to secure its main source of income: revenue from oil and gas. New research shared exclusively with the New Statesman has found that since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, more than £200bn in Russian fossil fuel exports have been shipped using UK-based maritime services. A single UK-based firm has carried almost a quarter of Russia's exports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) since the war began. While our government seeks to increase its defence budget, Britain's active role in the Russian fossil fuel trade helps to maintain the military spending of a nuclear power currently at war with a close European ally. The study, which has been conducted by the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA), finds that the value of Russian crude oil, oil products and LNG shipped under British ownership or insurance since the war began has now reached £205.8bn. Three quarters of Russian LNG carriers were covered by UK insurance. Britain officially stopped importing Russian oil and oil products nine months after the invasion (it became illegal to do so on 5 December 2022). But a sanctions loophole means Britain keeps buying Putin's products: Russian crude is shipped to refineries in Turkey and India and then returns as oil products. CREA estimates that the UK has indirectly bought £1.4bn in Russian oil through this loophole, providing more than half a billion pounds' worth of revenue to the Kremlin. Much of the jet fuel taking British holidaymakers to sunnier climes this summer will have entered the supply chain in the oilfields of Siberia. Europe continues to buy Russian LNG directly, and in 2024 imported more LNG from Russia than ever before. Much of this is shipped, entirely legally, by a single British company: Seapeak, which is headquartered in Glasgow and which owns seven specialist LNG carriers, which can power through ice two metres thick. This is not subject to a ban and there is no suggestion that Seapeak has broken any laws. Seapeak was mentioned in an Early Day Motion on Russian LNG, which was signed by 34 cross-party MPs in January. CREA says that Seapeak alone has carried Russian LNG worth £13bn since the war began. Elsewhere, Russian fossil fuels are also shipped by a 'dark fleet' of uninsured vessels, whose ownership is obscured. As previously reported, these ships pass in sight of our shores on an almost daily basis as they sail through the English Channel. Since Labour came to power, the UK government has taken a more determined stance towards sanctioning these ships and those who enable their sale, including an accountant who allegedly arranged for the sale of vessels. A government spokesperson told the New Statesman: 'We are working with G7 and EU partners to eliminate remaining dependencies on Russian energy as soon as possible. We will not hesitate to take further action to increase economic pressure on Putin.' Why can't we stop paying Putin immediately? In a word: inflation. If Western countries entirely quit the Russian oil and gas habit, the wholesale price of energy would spike in a similar manner to 2022, bringing the price of almost everything else with it. The last inflationary surge cost the UK government £67bn in a single year in additional spending in support for consumers and businesses, and the population still endured a historic rise in the cost of living accompanied by strikes across the public sector. No government is going to impose that upon its voters, and even if it did, it wouldn't last long. Subscribe to The New Statesman today from only £8.99 per month Subscribe This doesn't mean there is nothing the UK can do. Energy analysts say it is a question of supply: when the oil and gas market has enough capacity to make a sudden drop in Russian fossil fuels less important, sanctions can be imposed and enforced. The pragmatic answer is probably then to secure LNG and crude from other countries. The most realistic answer to this problem therefore comes from productive diplomacy with the US for LNG, and Saudi Arabia and others for oil. In the long term, of course, it means not relying on fossil fuels, because we don't have enough to power our country. Amid all the talk of how much we're going to spend on our military, it's important we also try to avoid paying for our enemy's.
