Before he was an Alameddine boss, Masood Zakaria was one of NSW’s worst drivers

He drove a $200,000 Lamborghini before he left Australia. Now the horrific driving record of exiled Alameddine kingpin Masood Zakaria can be revealed.

Before he was accused of conspiring to murder a rival gangster, exiled Alameddine crime kingpin Masood Zakaria was one of the state’s worst drivers.

In the years before Zakaria fled the country last December in the wake of finding out NSW Police planned to arrest him on conspiracy to murder charges, the former Brothers 4 Life member racked up dozens of traffic offences.

The Daily Telegraph can reveal Zakaria’s driving was so poor he totalled $16,234 in fines for road offences between 2014 and 2021, and was even branded a “habitual offender” by a Magistrate.

Despite currently being believed to be in Turkey in exile, Zakaria is still continuing to find trouble in NSW — having his licence suspended at Windsor Local Court, after being caught doing 103km/h in a 60km/h zone on Bells Line of Road at Bilpin on July 4, 2021.

Unsurprisingly, the matter last month was heard in Zakaria’s absence.

The underworld boss left Australia after becoming aware in December of a warrant for his arrest on charges relating to an ultimately failed plot to kill rival gangster Ibrahem Hamze at North Sydney last August.

It is believed Zakaria made his way from NSW to Western Australia, before taking a fishing trawler to Malaysia, and then continuing on to Turkey.

Zakaria’s driving record shows his troubles began in June 2014, when he was fined $600 for doing 30km/h over the limit on a double demerits weekend.

Over the next two years he racked up $8577 in fines for offences including parking in a disabled spot, not displaying his P plates, doing 20km/h over the limit in a school zone and driving a high-performance car while on his P’s – which is not allowed.

His licence was initially suspended until 2023, but that was later overturned on appeal, meaning he could drive again.

Once back on the road Zakaria racked up thousands more in fines, with his last offence before leaving the country coming on December 7, 2021 when he was caught speeding by 20-30km/h over the limit.

Eight days later detectives would arrive at his Greystanes home to arrest him, but Zakaria would be gone.
