Crime Gangs Task Force arrest alleged Rebels bikies and associates after 4am northern suburbs meeting

An anti-bikie police task force has arrested four alleged Rebels members and associates in another enforcement of South Australia’s strict criminal association laws.

Four alleged Rebels bikies and associates have been arrested after allegedly breaking South Australia’s strict criminal association laws.

Police allege the four men were together in Salisbury Downs about 4am on Thursday and in breach of anti-association laws.

Crime Gangs Task Force officers arrested 25-year-old Ridleyton man, a 29-year-old Hope Valley man, a 31-year-old Highbury man and a 36-year-old Salisbury Park man and charged them with criminal association.

They were all granted police bail to face the Adelaide Magistrates Court on April 10.

South Australian law prohibits three or more participants of a criminal organisation to be present in a public place, with a maximum penalty of three years imprisonment.

The Rebels, Hells Angels, Comanchero, Bandidos, Descendants, Finks, Gypsy Jokers, Nomads, Red Devils and Mongols outlaw motorcycle gangs are all declared criminal organisations under South Australian law.

The arrests come after 13 alleged Hells Angels members, including senior member Terry Ian Polley, and associates were last week arrested and charged with criminal association over an alleged group run on January 2.

Police allege all 13 are either patched Hells Angels members, prospects or associates of the club.

All 13 men, who were arrested during searches of 16 homes on January 12, were granted police bail to face the Adelaide Magistrates Court on April 9.
