The United Arab Emirates has frozen the assets of Tyson Fury’s former adviser, Daniel Kinahan, who has been named in the Irish courts as being head of one of Europe’s biggest drug cartels.

Earlier this month the U.S. Treasury announced sanctions against what it called the Kinahan Organized Crime Group (KOCG) and rewards of $5 million each for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Kinahan, 44, his father Christy Sr, 65, and brother Christy Jr, 41, as well as several other associates accused of money laundering.
