The US government is offering five million dollars for information on an Irish crime gang or for the arrest and conviction of its leaders.
It comes as a US government department imposed sanctions against seven senior members of the Kinahan crime gang as part of a bid to target their financial operations.
US ambassador to Ireland Claire Cronin told an event at Dublin City Hall that the US department of the treasury is offering a reward of five million US dollars (£3.8 million/4.6 million euro) for information that will lead to the “financial destruction” of the Kinahan crime gang or the arrest and conviction of its leaders.
