[gentle music] Spanish detectives have seized more than 100 photographs showing torture and beatings at a Costa del Sol apartment used by suspected members of the Scots gang allied with the Kinahans. The gruesome pictures were discovered at the flat in Fuengirola during one of the 18 raids targeting the Lyons gang carried out by cops late last month. And today I'm talking to Niall Donald about what the gory findings will mean for the Lyons gang and for the Kinahan cartel. I'm Nicola Tallant, and you're listening to Crimeworld, a podcast from crimeworld.com. Yeah, sometimes the, um, e- the realities of the underworld and, you know, organized crime are so stark that you, you can, you turn your head. I, I recall after the EncroChat hack, the immediate kind of move, uh, saw the Dutch police uncover a container deep in a forest in the Netherlands, which had been turned into a torture chamber, complete with a dentist chair and various implements, um, and also soundproofed. And there was room in a holding cell f- to hold something like 10 individuals, and there had been plans to bring people to it. It was like a kind of, it was gonna be basically a torture chamber.
