The Kinahan/Hutch feud is nearly ten years old. A new book reveals the ruthless hit squads which brought terror to the streets of Dublin during the gang war and also details the success of Gardai in pursuing the criminals involved. Irish Sun journalists and authors of the book, Stephen Breen and John Hand, join Oliver.

Stephen Breen, Crime Editor, Irish Sun

It's been ten years since the beginning of the Hutch-Kinahan feud. A new book, 'Kinahan Assassins', chronicles the killings ordered by the Kinahans over the course of the feud. We speak to its authors Stephen Breen and John Hand from the Irish Sun and authors of 'Kinahan Assassins'.

The Kinahan cartel is Ireland's most powerful crime gang, and one half of its most notorious gang war. After a failed hit on boss Daniel Kinahan, the cartel recruited a team of killers to retaliate against the Hutch gang. One of the men they hired was Estonian Imre ‘The Butcher' Arakas – but the eccentric hitman was soon caught. Ciarán Dunbar is joined by crime editor with the Irish Sun and co-author of ‘Kinahan Assassins', Stephen Breen, to tell the story of the Kinahan-Hutch feud, its victims and its hitmen.

It's hard to summarise them under one heading so, just like a player in his dressing room or a student in his classroom you just need to strap in and see where the journey takes you. Before that there's a wrap of the weekend that was at the top and bottom of the table and there's also a getting to know you interview with St Patrick's Athletic's Romal Palmer, all facilitated by our friends in Future Ticketing, Lily's Childcare, Collar & Cuff and Rascals Brewing.
