The Kinahan cartel’s No. 1 man in Ireland Ross Browning’s plush countryside property, seized by the Criminal Assets Bureau, is set to go under the hammer to the highest bidder, we can exclusively reveal.
Officers from the CAB swooped on the property last July to officially seize it. Now we can exclusively reveal the property is now for sale by public auction - an online auction that will take place in two weeks time - on Thursday, April 25 with an Advised Minimum Value of €550k. ‘The House’ is described as a three-bedroom, red brick house located behind the warehouse. Internally accommodation comprises a living room, open plan kitchen/dining area, three bedrooms and bathroom while the warehouse is described as steel framed, concrete floor with lorry height doors and extends to x496m2.
In his judgement, Judge Alexander Owens said Browning’s mother Julie Conway and her partner ex-garda David O’Brien, who had been living in Chestnut Lodge, be allowed part of the proceeds from the sale of the renovated cottage because they had put some of their own money into it. This included €40,000 borrowed from the Garda Credit Union.
His associates named in the case included Daniel Kinahan, Liam Byrne and Fat Freddy Thompson, who is serving life for a feud related murder.
