Irish mobster dodges law with escape to Thailand

Featured Replies

IMG_9129.jpg

 

An Irish mobster has fled to Thailand in an attempt to evade the long reach of the law in his Emerald Isle homeland.

 

The mobster, along with his brother, swiftly departed from Ireland after authorities cracked down on their illegal drug trafficking operation. While one brother is reportedly holed up in Dubai, the other has sought refuge in the Land of Smiles.

 

Dublinlive disclosed that the siblings are also implicated in the brutal murder of a teenage Irish boy.

 

An elusive crime boss and his sibling have now gone their separate ways – one residing in Dubai and the other taking shelter in Thailand, it has been revealed. However, both remain under suspicion for their involvement in supplying drugs to the market in Drogheda, Co Louth, from their overseas hideouts.

 

Given the seriousness of the charges they face, the brothers, both in their twenties, cannot be named. Warrants for their arrest were issued after they went on the run following the savage killing of teenager Keane Mulready-Woods in January 2020.

 

A third accomplice, who also fled, is now believed to be in Northern Ireland. The beleaguered brothers initially fled to Spain and then Mexico before seeking sanctuary in their new refuges in Dubai and Thailand.

 

Their gang is embroiled in a deadly conflict with associates of Owen Maguire, a mob boss left paralysed, in the Drogheda feud. They fear retaliation from those seeking vengeance for Keane’s gruesome murder.

 

Keane was murdered and dismembered, with his body parts later dumped from a car in Coolock’s Moatview. Subsequently, his head, hands, and feet were discovered in a burnt-out car in Dublin, an unnamed source said.

 

“There doesn’t seem to have been any falling out between the brothers, but they appear to be trying to establish themselves independently. Nevertheless, both brothers continue to supply the drug market in Drogheda, and it’s believed they have now expanded their network to both Dubai and Thailand.

 

“They wield considerable influence and instill fear in people, with everyone hesitant to refuse them.”

 

Despite a relative calm in recent years, the feud has claimed four lives, with over 100 criminal incidents reported, including shootings and petrol bombings of houses.

I don't think Thailand is a safe place for high profile criminals on the wanted list. The Kinahan crime family have supposedly fled Dubai, so that might not be safe either. 

 

Cambodia might be a safer place to operate? Ronnie Biggs the great train robber fled to Brazil and got a woman pregnant, and he was allowed to stay. He came back when old age caught up with him and died in a care home after a spell in prison. 

 

A life on the run is no life at all.

On-the-run Drogheda mob boss and his brother have now split up - with one living in Dubai and the other living in Thailand, we can exclusively reveal.

 

However, both are still suspected of supplying the drugs market in Drogheda from their overseas hideaways.

 

Both brothers, who are in their 20s, cannot be identified as they are facing serious charges. Warrants have been issued for their arrests since they went on the run and fled the country in the aftermath of the gruesome murder of teen Keane Mulready-Woods in January 2020.

 

A third associate - who also fled - is now believed to be in Northern Ireland. The under threat brothers fled to Spain and then Mexico before fleeing to their new hideaways in Dubai and Thailand.

Can you be a big mobster by your 20s?

Maybe they should try Russia as their new hideout. Putin might even put out the "red" carpet for them.

Some lucky police officer will I'm sure stumble over this pile of crap and then the playoffs will begin,, pretty stupid coming here

Interpol will contact RTP and in five year's time they'll start looking.  Meanwhile the Red Bull brat will be at this weekend's F1 meeting.

It's just a phase he is going through, once he meets a good woman and gets a job he'll settle down.

I don’t think Ronnie Biggs is a good example of “ a life on the run is no life at all “

He appeared to be doing okay with his celebrity status in his bar in Rio , even the retired detective who pursued him posed for a photo drinking with Ronnie ( proudly displayed on the wall of his bar ).

Only returning home to die on British soil knowing full well he would be arrested upon arrival.

If the redbull heir could escape the law in Thailand despite the serious allegations, anything is possible to evade the law in Thailand,......if you have the money.

Not now.

I doubt if Interpol will even attempt to contact the RTP. Why would they bother? Let us hope someone takes matters into their own hands, and eliminates these insects, disguised as humans. 

 

They have already self revoked their right to consume oxygen.

Someone from my locality who I knew very vaguely, went on the run in Thailand several years ago after teaching a nightclub bouncer a lesson after he tried picking on him. I haven’t seen him around since pre-Covid days but he was at large for several years (and still maybe), despite having an interpol red notice on him. Had a Thai wife and a couple of kids too. 

The RTP will nab him in about 2034 I'd say ......   it usually takes them 10 years before they start looking.
