The cash that was seized by gardaí
Gardaí have seized almost €2m in cash from a Russian crime network that laundered drug money for the Kinahan cartel while also funding espionage missions.
Officers have said that the Smart and TGR groups turned over billions of euro globally by “cleaning” dirty cash for Europe’s top drugs gangs and helping Russian elites evade financial sanctions.
