- 17 hours ago February 15, 2014
A factory in Wanya Place, Tea Gardens, was raided by police at 12.30pm, because they suspected gang members were running an illegal bar.
The factory is believed to belong to the Comanchero outlaw motorcycle gang’s Great Lakes chapter.
The search uncovered items suspected as being used for the sale and distribution of alcohol. Police also seized a bath, fridge, pool table and a number of bar stools. They are expecting to lay charges in the next few days.
Superintendent Craig Rae, said local police are continuing to target outlaw gangs operating in the area.
“This is another example of Strike Force Raptor working with a Local Area Command to dismantle a clubhouse used by an Outlaw Motorcycle Gang,” said Rae
“It should come as a strong warning to all outlaw gang members who believe that they can flout the rules of society.”
The operation followed an operation on Thursday targeting the Life and Death bikie gang.
