CAB can sell €500k assets linked to Kinahan gang

The High Court has cleared the way for the Criminal Assets Bureau (CAB) to sell assets worth €500,000, including several cars, which it believes are linked to the Kinahan organised crime gang.

CAB, which says that the assets are the proceeds of criminal activity, previously secured orders freezing jewellery, motorbikes, and cars, seized by it following raids at various locations in March 2016.

CAB’s proceedings are against Liam Byrne, who it says is a member of the Kinahan gang, and several of his associates.
