And the phone that is relevant to Daniel Kinahan is a phone called Bonn.

And both of these phones were discovered when the Estonian hitman Imre Arrakis was arrested in Ireland on a mission to kill James Magogately.

The police had initially followed him.

They had got a tip-off from their Estonian-Lithuanian counterparts that he was on his way into Ireland.

The feud was going on.

They set up a surveillance operation, followed him into town, followed him as he walked around a couple of areas where certain Hutch associates lived.

And they watched and waited as he went out to Blakestown cottages to the home of Eric Fowler.

And they...

basically sat overnight as he slept on a camper bed in the sitting room, burst in in the morning with no announcement and managed to grab a BlackBerry phone on which there were messages.

And those messages were coming from Knife and Bond.

Those messages have been read out

in the case relating to Imre Arrakis and what the directions were.

And he was, you know, to and fro about how he needed a silencer.

He was going up to Newry, had the address of where James Michael Gately was living.

He had a plan in place.

He thought he could either jam the door open and go in after him or else he could just get him one shot to the head, I think was one of the messages he had sent to them on that.

So those, the existence essentially of that network, and I think it was called the Bon Mars Network, M-A-R-S, as far as I can recall.

And I think I was also told at the time that that was the Kinahan's own encrypted network.

Yeah.

That they'd had it created for them at that point.
