WorldFrom Dubai luxury to an Irish jail cell: Daniel Kinahan’s drastic lifestyle shift

Daniel Kinahan, accused of helping control a third of Europe’s cocaine supply, has begun life inside Portlaoise prison in Ireland. His first full day marked a sharp reversal from the luxury he enjoyed in the United Arab Emirates. The only place he may now be able to spend money is the prison tuck shop. Although his confinement includes a private gym, a library and daily exercise-yard outings, a landing cleared of other prisoners underscores the dramatic change in circumstances.
