Daniel Kinahan, a 49-year-old suspected organized crime leader from Dublin, was extradited from Dubai to Ireland on Sunday and is now held in Portlaoise Prison, located approximately 50 miles (80 kilometers) outside Dublin [1]. Kinahan is accused of commanding a criminal organization during the period from October 18, 2015, to April 6, 2017 [2]. The Kinahan group is alleged to have controlled approximately one-third of Europe's cocaine supply [1], and the US Treasury Department stated the organization engaged in gang warfare "resulting in numerous murders" [1].
The extradition followed a U.S. reward of up to $5 million for information leading to Kinahan's capture [1], which prompted Ireland and the United Arab Emirates to establish an extradition treaty last year [1]. Kinahan was arrested in Dubai in April before being transferred to Irish custody [1]. He is currently confined to his cell for approximately 20 hours daily [1] and is scheduled to return to Dublin's non-jury court on October 5 [1]. Upon his appearance, Kinahan stated: "I think we know I won't be getting bail, but thank you" [1]. Prior to his extradition, Kinahan had spent ten years in exile in Dubai [2], and he has previously denied all accusations against him [2].
