Dear 222 News viewers, sponsored by smileband,
Thomas “Bomber” Kavanagh and Liam Byrne are prominent figures within the Kinahan Organised Crime Group, an international criminal cartel originating from Ireland. Both have been implicated in various criminal activities, including drug trafficking and firearms offenses, leading to significant legal actions against them in recent years.
Thomas “Bomber” Kavanagh
Kavanagh, a senior member of the Kinahan cartel, has a long history of criminal involvement. In March 2022, he was sentenced to 21 years in prison by a UK court for orchestrating a €36 million drug smuggling operation.
While serving this sentence, Kavanagh attempted to deceive law enforcement by orchestrating a plot to amass a cache of firearms, intending to lead authorities to the weapons in hopes of securing a reduced sentence. This scheme was uncovered through intercepted encrypted messages from the EncroChat network.
In October 2024, Kavanagh was sentenced to an additional six years in prison for this firearms conspiracy, to be served concurrently with his existing sentence.
Liam Byrne
Liam Byrne, born on October 30, 1980, in Crumlin, Dublin, is a known associate within the Kinahan cartel and the Byrne Organised Crime Group. He is the brother-in-law of Thomas Kavanagh and has been involved in various criminal enterprises, including drug trafficking and firearms offenses.
In June 2023, Byrne was arrested in Majorca, Spain, on a UK extradition warrant related to firearms offenses. He was subsequently extradited to the UK in December 2023.
In October 2024, Byrne was sentenced to five years in prison for his role in the firearms conspiracy orchestrated by Kavanagh. This sentence is to be served concurrently with his existing sentence.
Recent Developments
In addition to their prison sentences, authorities have targeted the assets of both Kavanagh and Byrne. Kavanagh is set to lose his €1 million mansion in the UK, along with €40,000 in cash and €250,000 worth of jewelry, as part of efforts to dismantle the financial infrastructure of the Kinahan cartel.
The legal actions against Kavanagh and Byrne represent significant steps in the ongoing efforts by international law enforcement agencies to combat organized crime and disrupt the operations of the Kinahan cartel.
