Joe Molloy

He will undoubtedly try and fight the extradition back to Ireland, but he's wanted here before the courts on serious charges.

We don't have them exactly yet, but it looks like a kind of an overarching case against him where the state will accuse him of involvement in murder and organised crime.

And is he likely to have a fair chance of fighting extradition or is he up against it on that front?

It's very difficult to know how any of that goes in the Emirates because it's not an open court system.

We don't have any links.

We can't send a reporter along.

I know that Sean McGovern, who's his number two, who was extradited last year, he was eight months kind of as such in custody there and fighting some extradition until he was sent back.

I would imagine that Kinahan's will be less, maybe half that.

I'd be looking at sort of four months to six months and I think he'd be back in the country.

We'd probably send a military jet out for him in the same way as we did for McGovern.

So this is big stuff, you know.

And I have spent the last few days not off the phone between calls from, you know, the Washington Post, the New York Times, you name it.

I mean, this is a global story.

And really, it's what you're about to speak about the boxing that put Daniel Kinahan on the world stage like that.

And we did just an explainer, a preamble as such for the listeners.

So where we largely left it was 2022 on that very famous day, dramatic day where US authorities pitched up at City Hall and...

Gardaí were there, European, British enforcement there.

And I think the suspicion at that point, or just the feeling lay people would have had looking on that day was, my goodness, he's going to be arrested within the hour, like within the month.

And yet we've had these four years where it seems he's living a fairly comfortable lifestyle, to say the least, in Dubai.

He's seen at fight events.
