Sunday World
About this episode

European super witness Raffaele Imperiale has been jailed for 15 years in Italy handing over €2 million in Bitcoin and an island in Dubai he says is worth €60 million.


But still the cocaine boss who has turned informant on his former partners in Daniel Kinahan’s European Super Cartel will continue to give information behind bars?


So what about Kinahan? Why is he still a free man in the United Arab Emirates and will Imperiale have any information to offer Irish authorities in their pursuit to topple the Kinahan drugs empire?
