Up until the age of 25, Kinahan, the eldest son of Christy Kinahan - a well-known criminal
- led a relatively anonymous life and had never come to the attention of the gardaí,
apart from a conviction for driving offences.
Senior members of the Kinahan cartel have become world news after the crime group was
hit with sanctions from the United States as part of international action to clamp down
on its activities.
Earlier this month, the United States Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets
Control issued the order against the ' Kinahan Organized Crime Group' . The order was issued
against seven of the group's key members, including Christopher Kinahan Senior, Daniel
Kinahan , Christopher Kinahan Junior, and three associated businesses.
A reward of up to $5 million is being offered for information that could lead to the group's
dismantling.
Up until the age of 25, Kinahan, the eldest son of Christy Kinahan - a well-known criminal
- led a relatively anonymous life and had never come to the attention of the gardaí,
apart from a conviction for driving offences.
He finally began to show up on gardai's radar after he was arrested along with four others
in connection with an attack on two gardai outside Shelbourne Park greyhound stadium
in May 2001.
Kinahan was charged with assault and initially refused bail by Dublin District Court that
July, but the charges were dropped the following January.
By 2009, Kinahan was taking an active part in his father's business which was described
as a suspected international drug-trafficking figure in a diplomatic cable sent from a United
States embassy in South America to the Pentagon in Washington.
For years authorities have tried to put an end to the huge criminal organisation but
had little luck until recent months.
Kinahan's long time close associate Thomas' Bomber' Kavanagh, was jailed for 21 years
after importing cocaine and cannabis worth more than €36m earlier this month.
And on Tuesday, the Kinahan cartel was dealt another major blow after a €1 million mansion
in Saggart, Dublin, which was linked with the criminal cartel and owned by businessman
Jim Mansfield Jr was seized by the Criminal Assets Bureau.
Kinahan has been living in Dubai for a number of years now as he tries to evade law enforcement
agencies across Europe and has been trying to build a reputation as one of boxing's most
influential promoters.
Daniel Kinahan has been living in Dubai for the last number of years.
However, sources have claimed that the mob boss's time in the desert is coming to an
end.
Kinahan , along with leaders of his cartel, were hit with massive sanctions by the United
Arab Emirates, which has seen both business and personal accounts frozen.
Kinahan has managed to keep much of his personal relationships secret, with little known about
his wife, Caoimhe Robinson.
In May 2017, he married his Dublin-born partner Caoimhe in a lavish wedding bash in the oil-rich
Middle Eastern city with some of the world's most sinister drug barons and criminal gang
leaders in attendance.
The wedding took place at the seven-star Burj al Arab in Dubai and was a focal point for
investigators.
It was the second time tying the knot for Kinahan, who was previously married to Jean
Boyland, but the couple separated in 2014.
The United States Drug Enforcement Agency compiled a dossier on the wedding party following
the luxurious wedding.
According to leaked documents, it is estimated that the gangsters had together imported over
€23 billion worth of cocaine into Europe.
The Drug Enforcement Agency documents sent to Dutch police identified Imperiale, Taghi,
Bosnian criminal Edin Gacanin, Richard' El Rico' Vega and Daniel Kinahan as the heads
of a super drug cartel.
Kinahan himself is thought to be one of the wealthiest criminals in the world thanks to
growing his father's drug cartel.
