Dutch police will hunt down Irish gangs
The warning was made after police there arrested eight people, including three Irish nationals, as part of a “large-scale drug investigation” targeting the Kinahan crime cartel.
In an operation in Amsterdam with the gardaí, Dutch police confiscated 175kg of drugs, a computer generating bitcoin, and two vacuum-packed bags of cash. Police suspect the criminals were using a ‘bitcoin mine’, or ‘bitcoin farm’, to pay for drugs with the digital currency.
