Alleged Irish crime boss Daniel Kinahan charged after UAE extraditionAlleged Irish organized crime figure Daniel Kinahan has been extradited from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to Ireland, where he has been formally charged with directing the activities of a criminal organization.
Under Irish law, he is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
The successful extradition underscores the increasing willingness of governments to cooperate in pursuing suspects accused of involvement in organized crime.
The Kinahan extradition is regarded as one of the most significant examples of that international collaboration involving Ireland and the UAE.
The extradition and subsequent court appearance represent an important development in one of Ireland’s most closely watched organized crime investigations.
