The United Arab Emirates has frozen the assets of the Irish Kinahan crime gang.
The PA news agency understands that the United Arab Emirates has moved to freeze the assets of the Kinahan gang, which is believed to frequently use Dubai as part of its illicit operations.
US authorities earlier this month said that a five-million dollar reward was being offered for information on the gang that leads to the arrest and conviction of its leaders.
The US has imposed sanctions against seven senior members of the Kinahan crime gang as part of a bid to target their financial operations.
The Irish Justice Minister Helen McEntee welcomed the announcement.
She said: “This shows the swift impact of the sanctions announced last week to dismantle the Kinahan organised crime group.
“An Garda Siochana’s tireless work in building a international law enforcement coalition to dismantle the gang has sent a clear signal that nobody is out of reach of the law.
“The net is now clearly tightening on the Kinahan organised crime group.”
