The programme also spoke to Assistant Garda Commissioner John O’Driscoll, who oversees the Garda units investigating organised and serious crime. He said: “I think it is reasonable to assume that we will achieve our ultimate objective, which is to put the Kinahan Organised Crime Group out of business and to bring the hierarchy of the crime group before the courts.” BBC Panorama said it understands that Irish authorities are trying to get members of the cartel deported, and that the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) in the US may also be investigating the gang. The DEA told the programme it was not able to comment on the activities of the Kinahan cartel because it is part of an ongoing investigation.
