Like at this stage, you can see the Kinahan organisation and the Byrne organised crime group, they're totally one organisation.
They're both operating on these PGP phones, as they're called, pretty good privacy, BlackBerry phones, where they have this server and they're exchanging messages.
These phones are already going to a very tight group of people.
who can communicate with each other.
And you can see Bomber, Kavanaugh, Daniel Kinnan, all of these people are on this same network, just showing how tight they are.
Ultimately, over the next year or two years, that relationship seems to have fractured, to say the least.
But Declan Brady...
