Control order Fink's history a secret
ANDREW DOWDELL, ADELAIDENOW REPORTER
May 26, 2009 01:40pm
SECRECY surrounds the criminal history of a Finks Motorcycle Club member served with the first control order under South Australia's new anti-bikie laws.
AdelaideNow can reveal Finks member Donald "Duck" Hudson was singled out by the Crown Solicitor as the first gang member to be subject to a control order.
Premier Mike Rann has previously stated the anti-bikie laws were designed to restrict the movements of outlaw motorcycle club members, who he has repeatedly described as "rapists" and "drug dealers".
But Hudson's criminal history - or lack of it - remains a secret, after the media was banned from accessing his record.
Yesterday, Magistrate Kym Millard issued the first control order since the Finks were declared an outlaw organisation earlier this month.
In a closed hearing in Mr Millard's chambers, officials from the Crown Solicitor's office applied to have a control order imposed on Hudson - who under the legislation is not entitled to be present.
The hearing was not on official court lists and police only issued a media statement at about 6pm, after the story was broken on a television news service.
Under the new laws, if the Crown Solicitor produces evidence that the person is a member of the Finks Motorcycle Club, the magistrate has no option but to issue the control order.
Only then will the subject of the order be informed.
The laws stipulate that Hudson has 14 days to lodge an objection against the control order.
Hudson's lawyer Craig Caldicott said he had been instructed to make no comment at this stage about the control order.

Police swoop on Bandidos, Rebels in drug raids
May 29, 2009 07:00am
TWO associates of the Bandidos and Rebels bikie gangs have been arrested by police following two unrelated drugs raids in Sydney.
Police from Strike Force Raptor raided a property on Cabramatta West in Sydney's south-west, after receiving information about the supply of prohibited drugs.
During a search of the High St address, police allegedly found a quantity of cannabis and paraphernalia linked to drugs supply, as well as firearms parts.
A 56-year-old man, who police said is a Bandidos associate, was arrested by police and subsequently charged with drugs supply and possession, and with possessing an unregistered firearm.
He was refused bail to appear at Liverpool Local Court today.
During the second raid at Caringbah in Sydney's south, police arrested a 39-year-old man, charging him with a string of drugs and weapons charges.
Police raided the business on Resolution Drive at 3.30pm yesterday, finding quantities of cannabis, ecstasy and steroids, two pairs of handcuffs and a stun gun.
The alleged Rebels associate now faces nine charges, including drugs supply and possession, and possessing a restricted weapon.
He was granted conditional bail to appear at Sutherland Local Court on June 18.

Four men charged over 'drug-related' shooting
Police have charged four men in connection with a drug-related shooting in Perth.
The former president of the Gypsy Jokers motorcycle gang, Lennard Kirby, and associate Alexandro Scilio were shot last month on a rural property in the southern suburb of Jandakot.
Police claim the men exchanged gun fire with a gang during a dispute over drugs.
Both men have been refusing to cooperate with a police investigation, but have been charged with performing an act causing danger.
Assistant Commissioner Wayne Gregson says the incident was not related to motorcycle gangs.
"It's not gang-related, it's drug-related," he said.
"Police will be alleging that one party went to the premises, they confronted another party, there was an altercation between the groups and then there was an exchange of gunfire between the parties that were separately armed.
"There's some indication that some of those involved were involved in low level street gangs not outlaw motorcycle.
"It's coincidental to this matter, this matter, we will be alleging, is drug-related."
Six men have now been charged over the incident.
Most are expected to appear in court next week.

Bikie gang war explodes as Ibrahim brother shot
By Yoni Bashan and Lisa Mayoh
June 07, 2009 12:00am
SYDNEY's gang war escalated to new heights yesterday with the younger brother of Kings Cross figure John Ibrahim shot five times outside his home.
Police believe the attack on Fadi Ibrahim in his car outside his Castle Cove home on Sydney's North Shore late on Friday night will spark a chain of revenge shootings between warring bikie gangs.

Special section: Inside Sydney's bikie bloodshed
Ibrahim, an associate of the Notorious bikie gang, was seated in his black Lamborghini with his 23-year-old girlfriend when a lone gunman, who had been waiting on the golf course across the road, walked over and shot him five times in the stomach, chest and arm through the car window.

His girlfriend, Shayda, was shot in her leg. Yesterday, two police officers guarded the door of the Intensive Care Unit at Royal North Shore Hospital where Ibrahim was fighting for his life after "hours" of surgery.
Former NSW assistant police commissioner Clive Small warned there would be retribution for the shooting. He said: "It would be a very brave or stupid decision to shoot a member of the Ibrahim family in this way. If Fadi survives, he will no doubt identify his attackers.
"And I'm sure that he would know who was behind it."
At least 40 bikie associates and friends of the Ibrahim brothers gathered in support of Fadi at the hospital yesterday.
They were aggressive and hostile when approached by The Sunday Telegraph.
But a family friend said: "With all this s*** happening there's going to be a big hurt coming up."
John Ibrahim, 38, a Kings Cross nightclub promoter, is the most high-profile member of the Ibrahim family.
In the past, he has been the subject of hundreds of police intelligence reports. Ibrahim has consistently denied the allegation put to him during the Wood royal commission in 1996 that he was the "lifeblood of the drugs industry of Kings Cross".
John Ibrahim has never been convicted of a criminal offence.
His three brothers, Hassan (Sam), 43, Fadi, 35, and Michael, 30, are said to have amassed "many powerful enemies". Sam Ibrahim is a former branch president of the Nomads motorcycle club, which splintered in 2007 to form a new club, Notorious.
He denies any link to Notorious or to drugs.
Underworld sources believe the attack may have been designed to send a message to Fadi's older brother, John.
They warned that John may be the next target. Police sources told of how John Ibrahim remained calm as he was delivered the news by officers shortly after the attack.
The attack is understood to have been carried out with a calm, cold precision, with witnesses telling police the gunman turned around and walked away, without running, after he finished discharging the gun.
It is believed a silencer was used in the attack. The gunman calmly walked out of the golf course when Fadi pulled up in his car just before 11.30pm on Friday night and unloaded the weapon. Officers said yesterday investigators were aware of who carried out the attack and were likely to arrest the assailant in the imminent future.
Police sources, meanwhile, claim that Fadi has also been listed in police intelligence files.
John, however, has strongly maintained he has no dealings with the criminal world and all his earnings are completely legitimate. For his part, Fadi has described himself as a construction developer.
Mr Small said the Ibrahim power-base was now under threat. He added: "If there are no reprisals, it simply sends a message to others who might have a disagreement or dispute that the Ibrahims are now vulnerable to attack."
A 17-year-old resident heard the young woman crying out in pain and immediately called an ambulance, potentially saving Mr Ibrahim's life. A police officer from the North Shore Local Area Command arrived at the scene and performed CPR in a bid to revive him.
North Shore Acting Superintendent Peter Yeomans said all possible steps were being taken to minimise further violence.
"At the moment we're asking for assistance from the public in relation to this brutal and violent crime. Police are always mindful of reprisal attacks in relation to victims such as these," he said.
Officers speculate it is the third in a series of attacks that has already left two other men, former Nomads bikie Todd O'Connor and Bandidos associate Milad Sande, dead.
Fadi is known to maintain one of the lowest profiles among the Ibrahim brothers.

Dob in a bikie day
Rob Johnson is urging people to dob in bikies
Western Australians are being urged to 'dob in a bikie'.
Extra staff will man a police call centre on June 23 when people will be encouraged to make anonymous calls with information about outlaw motorcycle gangs.
WA's Police Minister Rob Johnson says bikies have been fooling the public into believing they are members of a social club, when in fact they belong to highly organised and sophisticated criminal organisations.
He says the identity of anyone offering information will be kept secret.
"Members of the public can rest assured and be confident that whatever information they may give to Crimestoppers in relation to bikie gang members will be kept in complete confidence," he said.
Assistant Police Commissioner Wayne Gregson says even details as innocuous as car or motorcycle registration numbers, bikies colours and their places of employment could make all the difference.
Window dressing
The Opposition is criticising the dob in a bikie day.
The party claims it is more about restoring the image of the Police Minister Rob Johnson than law enforcement.
Labor's spokeswoman for Police, Margaret Quirk, says setting aside a day for the public to dob in a bikie seems little more than window dressing.
She says it is a good idea to raise awareness on crime issues, but the public is already well aware that bikie gangs represent a threat to community safety.
Ms Quirk says the money could be spent in other ways.
"You have to be a little sceptical about the timing of this and wonder if it's more about raising the Minister's profile after he got such a battering on the enterprise bargaining agreement with the police," she said.
"We need be under no illusion that the public is more than well aware that the outlaw motorcycle gangs are a threat to community safety and are very active in Western Australia."

Bikie politics are getting out of control. The ACC's involvement is scaring the fuck out of everyone.

Thought I'd throw this link in the mix as I read an article on the same topic in the courier mail today. The Queensland Law Society and Bar Association have made a submission to the local government condeming the imminent "anti-bikie" laws. Good on them. The laws are pretty injust.... fancy being locked up for two years for being an alleged associate of an allegedly illegal group?
