Items seized during searches linked to INLA
20 JUNE 2019 DERRY CITY & STRABANE

Detectives from PSNI’s Organised Crime Unit have carried out six searches in Derry/Londonderry earlier today, in relation to an investigation into INLA criminality.

PSNI were supported by HMRC officers during four of the searches and a number of items were seized including counterfeit clothing, mobile phones, computers and documentation. Over £16,000 in cash was also recovered.

Detective Inspector Tom McClure of the PSNI’s Organised Crime Unit said: “Today’s searches in the city centre, Galliagh and Shantallow areas follow a number of recent operations targeting the INLA and their associated criminality.

“INLA in Derry/Londonderry claim to be protecting their communities from crime however in reality they themselves are heavily involved in a wide range of criminal money-making ‘rackets’ including extortion, supply of controlled drugs, counterfeit goods and money laundering. They bring harm and misery to people in the local area and whilst people who buy counterfeit goods may think this is a victimless crime, ultimately the profits of these items are indirectly funding INLA’s other criminality including dealing harmful drugs which destroy local families.

“Today’s operation demonstrates our commitment to bringing those involved in the criminality associated with Paramilitarism before the courts and we know that the communities most affected by INLA’s drug dealing and violence support our ongoing efforts. I would appeal for anyone with information regarding criminality by paramilitary organisations to contact police on 101. Alternatively, information can also be provided to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 which is 100% anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime.”

They been trying to kill the Monk’s brother for years now and he takes a fall down the stairs and dies. Hit teams, imported gunmen, the whole deal. You can’t make this shit up.

I wouldn’t want to be photographed being a pallbearer for that fella! Might as well paint a target on yer head!

I slapped a guy in the face three times and made him delete a picture of me doing something at a bar tonight, before emasculating one of his friends by slapping him on the chest as I left. OG Moe. I thought it deserved a post.

You must of had a rough child hood smh

If it was an Apple phone and he uses the cloud, it will be on his other device simultaneously, no?

Is Johnathan Gill still alive? I remember reading page 1 of this thread back when I first started following Irish OC but unless I missed something that guy has either disappeared off the face of the earth or is still somehow operating while staying out of the headlines. The Ra' was trying to kill him 7 years ago and he was a huge Gardai target.

Interesting rumours about why Troy Parrott isn't being given more of a chance at Tottenham Hotspur.

Far as I've heard, Gill is still around. Supposedly there's some sort of connection between him and the current Drogheda feud.

Thought this was pretty interesting.

UFC’s Darren Till poses for picture with Daniel Kinahan, alleged leader of the Kinahan Cartel

https://www.bloodyelbow.com/2020/3/...aniel-kinahan-cartel-gang-crime-mma-news

He is a prizefighter?? MMA??
Crazy that the criminal would want to be pictured, the fighter I get, as they might look at the crook like a fan would.


I think McGregor was a fanboy of Chapo Guzman.

The Kinahans are huge fans of MMA and UFC fighters. They've been known to mingle/take photos with and even employ people with that kind of experience.

I noticed that lately Daniel is often described as the leader, but why, is his father Christy already retired? He isn't that old yet.

Thanks, that makes sense. The link between Narco and prizefighting, is something that I’ve observed for a long time. Didn’t know about this instance, cool stuff.

Christy's health hasn't been great in 2018 he was hospitalized with heart problems, Danny and Christopher Jr. are running day to day operations but Christy is still the boss the same with other old timers like The Penguin and The Monk.

Well that was bound to happen. Lawlor was a complete psychopath and basically a serial killer with the amount of bodies he had under his belt.
