“We have submitted a number of investigation files to the Director of Public Prosecutions and we have some other ones underway in relation to other senior members of the Kinahan organised crime group.'
A senior garda has insisted the three leading members of the Kinahan cartel will be brought to justice as he confirmed a number of investigation files have been submitted to the Director of Public Prosecutions.
Asked specifically about the trio, Asst Comm Kelly told RTE: “None of the senior members of the Kinahan organised crime group will come voluntarily back to Ireland. Garda Commissioner Drew Harris said earlier this year it was more likely “international law enforcement will bring them to book”. There were just three threat to life operations – where investigators target, intercept and foil murders – this year compared to 27 one year at the height of the Kinahan and Hutch feud by specialist DOCB units.
The ongoing dispute has seen gangland crime cross into a different level of recklessness with continuous attempts to murder with shootings, firebombs, daylight kidnapping and even a grenade attack.Asst Comm Kelly said: “What we’ve seen is a move away from those highly organised gangland murders to now more unstructured localised groups who are operating in those areas that you have spoken about.
