Kinahan's Dubai Jail: Hellhole or Alcatraz?

0:00On April 21st, Irish Crime Boss Daniel Kanahan got pinched in Dubai this week on an Irish warrant for leading an organized gang. He's now stuck in out-hour central jail, about 18 miles from the Glitzy City Center, a spot inmates called Dubai's Alcatraz for his brutal setup. This prison packs dangerous types like killers and terrorists into filthy, jammed cells up to 15 men per room, crashing on bunks or the floor. Everyday life means scarce food, crawling with bugs, locked down for 23 or 24 hours straight, and rare peaks at a gym or library. Former inmates, mostly expats, including brits, paint a grim picture of torture with electric shocks, beatings, and unchecked violence like stavings, and assaults. They describe guards ignoring rapes, denying meds that let illnesses like tuberculosis spread, and extreme temps that break the spirit. Kanahan swapped his millionaire villas, boxing deals worth millions like $4 million from Tyson Fury, and cushy life for this hellhole.
