Senior Kinahan criminal arrested in botched Dutch hit

Two Irishmen, including a senior member of the Kinahan cartel, are among four people being questioned after a suspected botched murder attempt at one of Amsterdam’s busiest squares.

While the full details of Sunday night’s incident, in a pub off Rembrandt Square, have not been officially confirmed, the victim is thought to have escaped death after the gun failed to fire.

“He tried to shoot him in the head, but the gun jammed,” said one source.
