Biker arrested over blackmail bid
Wednesday, 23 January 2008
An alleged member of the Rebels motorcycle club has been charged with blackmail, threatening to kill and other offences after being arrested in the northern suburbs

South Australian police alleged the 41-year-old went to an address in Parafield Gardens yesterday to collect a $10,000 payment from his blackmail victim.

When he arrived at the home he was detained by detectives from the Crime Gangs Task Force.

"He was arrested for the offences of blackmail, making threats to kill, aggravated assault, possession of a pistol, possession of a sawn-off shotgun and other offences," a police spokesman said.

The man was expected to appear in the Adelaide Magistrates Court today.

"Police are conducting further investigations in respect to two other suspects who were involved in the blackmail," the spokesman said.
