"...identified as leaders of the Kinahan organised crime cartel." Probably shouldn't have named it after themselves.

Disorganization is probably what got him caught.

Serious organised crime is organised crime that poses a risk to national security, public safety and the economy.

>The US government imposed sanctions on him in April 2022 after he and other members of his family were identified as leaders of the Kinahan organised crime cartel. Perhaps they should have picked a different, and harder to figure out, name for their criminal organization. If I were a crime boss I would call my group the Lollypop Guild or the Crimson Permanent Assurance.

Their organisation doesn't have a name. That's just what the media slap on them.
