The Celtic Cartel (2023) Movie Script
1
Christopher Kinahan settled in Spain
in 2001,
along with his sons Daniel and Chris Jnr.
And from that moment he began to carry out
his criminal activities here.
He had very good contacts
with drug suppliers.
Cocaine from South American countries,
hashish from Morocco,
heroin from Afghanistan.
We began to take
the Kinahan family more seriously
when murders started happening
on the Costa del Sol.
I remember the first one back in 2008,
the murder of Paddy Doyle.
From that moment,
our interest in them is no longer
just about
their drug trafficking activities.
When deaths start happening,
it doesn't just stop with one.
When there started to be more problems
between the gangs, and more deaths,
is when Daniel Kinahan takes control
of the organisation.
I think he is more visceral,
and even more dangerous than his father.
He arrived with another person
to have coffee,
and two hooded individuals turned up.
They got out of a car
and shot him eight or nine times.
He tried to escape but was
eventually finished off on the ground.
He was a drug enforcer
who was in the business
of collecting debts
from people who didn't pay.
Then, shortly before his murder,
we had information that he went to Ireland
to collect a debt and it was not paid.
It was the first time someone
had stood up to Christy Kinahan's family,
and shortly after, his murder happened.
It may be related to that,
or that he wanted to set out
on his own without the Kinahans.
Who knows?
I'm not being funny, Dad.
The bloke ain't done
fuckin' no favours for me.
He called me a fuckin' rat.
He called me. He robbed me.
As far as I'm concerned,
karma comes around.
You need to listen to what I say.
I want to be with you, I love you.
But this is what my life's like.
If I want to get away with it,
I don't want you involved in it.
Do you not understand
how these people work?
Do you not understand?
If they can't get to me,
they go to the people you love.
They kill the people you love.
I led the investigation into his murder.
There are a number of video recordings
from within the urbanisation itself,
where it's possible to observe the chase
that finally and tragically ends
in the killing.
The victim,
being physically strong and young
was able to escape at first,
followed by the assassin.
One of the perpetrators was identified
and we were able to obtain his genetic
profile as part of the investigation,
match it and verify
that it was the same person,
and that he was the perpetrator.
Based on our investigation,
we can conclude
that there was a direct connection
between the person involved in the crime
and Daniel Kinahan's associates.
In your opinion, do you think
it was Daniel Kinahan's order?
In my opinion,
his associates were involved
and he was probably aware of it.
Daddy, help me! Daddy!
- Daddy, what was that?
- Come with me.
