SASHA Mielczarek’s dad, Sasha Sr, was afraid to leave the Rebels bikie gang for fear of retribution, according to explosive allegations ­contained in new court documents.

In a decision handed down this week that saved his business, Picton Tattoos, from forced closure — thanks to his ex-wife Dawn taking over the licence — the newly single Bachelorette winner’s dad spoke of concerns for his ­personal safety and that of his family should he leave the ­notorious bikie gang.

“My only concern in announcing that I am no longer a member is what happened to a former member who was a chapter president.

“He, like me, has some assets. It has been ­reported that after he resigned he was kidnapped, bashed ­unconscious, hogtied and had his nipples slit with a knife,” he claimed.

Late last year Sasha Sr was barred by police from working in his own tattoo parlours ­because of his association with Rebels bikies.

“His involvement with the Rebels and his knowledge in regard to a drive-by shooting at premises located next to the Picton Parlour and a murder/suicide of two members of the Rebels that occurred in Picton shortly afterwards” were cited as reasons for banning the TV star’s dad from his workplace.

On Wednesday a tribunal ruled that his ex-wife, Dawn, could take over the business, ­provided Sasha Sr had nothing to do with it.

Sasha Sr claimed to have joined the notorious gang ­because his other friends never wanted to go on motorbike rides with him.

“We would make plans to go on riding holidays together, however, they never came off as when it came time to commit and pay for accommodation they would become unavailable to go. I never ­involved myself in drug use or any criminal activities of any of the club members,” he said.
