KINAHAN SHOOTER 'FLEW TO LONDON 2WKS BEFORE GANG HIT'

TV doc claims Arakas is 'a good suspect' in 'Goldfinger' murder

- BY TOM PETTIFOR

A KINAHAN hitman suspected of killing notorious British gangster John 'Goldfinger' Palmer at his mansion jetted into London two weeks before the shooting, a new documentary reveals.

Imre Arakas, dubbed 'The Butcher', might have been hired by one of Palmer's former criminal associates, the Sky investigation claims.

Arakas is said to have carried out dozens of contract killings and is serving a 10-year term for murdering a cage fighter in Lithuania.

He was pictured flying into Stansted Airport 14 days before Palmer, 65, was assassinated on June 24, 2015. However, there is no record of him leaving.
