WHO IS BEHIND KINAHAN CARTEL? CHRISTY Kinahan Sr began preying on Dublin's vulnerable drug users at the height of the city's heroin epidemic in the 1980s. His early efforts came to a sudden halt when he was arrested in September 1986, and was slapped with a relatively-lean six-year jail sentence in 1987. But prison wouldn't stop him from working to expand his now-€1billion empire. He was one of the first Irish prisoners to get his own computer — and used it to brush up on the skills that would make him one of the world's deadliest narco-terrorists. Now, his son Daniel has stepped into his shoes as the top dog of the cartel, while also attempting to forge a legitimate career in boxing. Today, his sons and their cronies continue to evade the US' DEA, An Garda Siochana, Interpol and a number of other police services globally. The ruthless Kinahan family has dominated gangland crime in Ireland and across Europe for years. But the shocking attack at Dublin's Regency Hotel in 2016 and a murderous feud that resulted in 18 killings thrust them into the global spotlight. And the sheer scale of their criminal empire was laid bare in April 2022 when the US government announced a $5million bounty for information leading to the arrests of the heads of the Kinahan cartel — Christy and his sons Daniel and Christy Jr. 4 Daniel Kinahan took over running the cartel from his father Advertisement
