Drug lord Christy Kinahan planned to start a new life in Zimbabwe with his long-term partner and their children, leaked documents reveal.
The FBI most-wanted criminal also hoped to buy a fleet of at least nine planes from the Egyptian Air Force to transport drugs around Africa. The founder of the Kinahan cartel – once known as the Dapper Don – had tried to secure a marriage licence in Zimbabwe as a way of setting up a permanent bolthole there.
In a bid to evade capture he planned to move his long-term partner, a Dutch woman in her 40s, along with their three children to the basket-case country in Central Africa.
