Yet despite being one of the world's most elusive fugitives, Christy Kinahan hid in plain sight in Dubai doing something astonishingly mundane... posting Google reviews and travel tidbits. In March 2023 a review attributed to 'Christopher Vincent' appeared for Cycle Bistro in the plush Jumeirah district. In another, Kinahan, born to middle-class Irish parents in Perivale, west London, appeared irritated after a waitress called him 'boss'. However, the Daily Mail recently reveal that the Kinahans' seemingly carefree existence in the Gulf may soon be under threat, as the war in Iran heaps fresh pressure on the emirate. Far from taking action against him after he arrived in Dubai, the UAE granted Christy Kinahan an identity card.
