The three - a major, captain and lieutenant - met with Garda Commissioner Drew Harris at the force HQ in Dublin’s Phoenix Park following his visit to Dubai last month
Three senior Dubai cops have flown into Dublin – to discuss ways they can help gardai hammer the Kinahan cartel.And the Irish Mirror understands the delegation is now meeting with senior members of the Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau, the main Garda unit that has been tackling the €1 billion Kinahan gang for the last eight years.
The Irish Mirror revealed last month that Commissioner Harris had invited the Dubai police to Dublin after his visit to the state. The increased cooperation follows America's decision to issue a $5 million reward for the capture of each of the Kinahans in April last year. "This initiative is another demonstration of the value of the expansion of the Garda international network of liaison officers and visits made by myself and other senior officers to the US, Colombia, Dubai, Asia and across Europe in recent years.
The meeting comes just a day after Justice Minister Helen McEntee held a phone conference with her Dubai counterpart to discuss a plan to get the Kinahan leaders extradited back to Ireland.
