In The News - Ein Podcast von The Irish Times

In February 2016, just three days after the notorious Regency Hotel Shooting, 59-year-old Eddie Hutch was gunned down outside his home in Dublin’s north inner city.Hutch’s murder was the first in a two year killing spree by the Kinahan cartel following the Regency ambush.To this day, no one has been charged with Hutch’s murder. However, that could now change. Gardaí have sent a file to the Director of Public Prosecutions with evidence they believe could link several men to the killing. Daniel Kinahan, who is currently based in Dubai, is just one of the suspects named in the file.How likely is it that the leader of the Kinahan cartel will end up in Garda handcuffs? And with no extradition treaty between Ireland and the UAE, how difficult will it be to bring Kinahan back here, if he is charged?Irish Times crime and security correspondent Conor Lally reflects on his attempts to track Daniel Kinahan down in Dubai last week, and discusses Garda strategies being used to extradite the cartel leader back to Ireland.Presented by Sorcha Pollak.
