Judge says Ross Browning and his partner were of ‘very modest’ means at time when purchases happened

He said this gang is “involved in the importation, and distribution of drugs and firearms in Ireland” and that Mr Browning has associations with senior members. He and his partner, Sinead Mulhall, attended Daniel Kinahan’s wedding in Dubai in 2017 and Christopher Kinahan Jnr’s wedding in Spain in 2010, the judge said.

Mr Browning did not contest the Cab’s application. However, members of his family rejected the claims about the assets. Cab, represented by Benedict Ó Floinn SC, with Gráinne O’Neill BL, argued Mr Browning, a bricklayer who also operated a Dublin gym, had obtained assets by “intermingling money” that was the proceeds of crime with money belonging to members of his family.

In relation to claims made by Mr Browning’s family regarding the property and renovations at Garristown the lands in Rush, and the property at Deanstown, the judge said the evidence showed that Mr Browning was involved in acquiring all these properties.
