Mob boss Christy Kinahan is being shielded by corrupt politicians in the cartel’s African bolthole, it has been claimed.
Reports in Zimbabwe say he is spending more and more time in the troubled state as he tries to stay ahead of a major international manhunt for him and his gangster sons Daniel, 43, and 41-year-old Christopher Jnr. It had been known Kinahan, 66, who set up the €1billion drugs cartel that bears his name and is now run on a day-to-day basis by his son Daniel, was using the southern African state as a base for his international business ventures.
However, a Zimbabwe media investigation now claims he is spending most of his time there. The probe, by the respected Zimbabwe Independent, claims Kinahan and a key associate have local politicians in their pocket.
