Sydney detectives are appealing for public assistance to identify the driver of the getaway car used in the shooting murder of bikie boss Mick Hawi one year ago.

The former Comanchero bikie boss was shot up to a dozen times by a gunman as he got into his luxury four-wheel drive outside Fitness First at Rockdale on 15 February 2018.

Detectives have now released CCTV in an appeal for public assistance to identify the man who drove the Mercedes-Benz from the scene.

“We’re hopeful the CCTV may refresh someone’s memory or encourage him to come forward,” Det Supt Wallace said.

“The first clip of CCTV depicts the man running along Chandler St, after the Mercedes-Benz was set alight – he has a distinctive gait.

“The second clip of CCTV was captured about 20 minutes later and depicts the man walking with another man along Bowood Avenue, Bexley, where it is alleged the second getaway car was parked and stored.

Anyone with information that may assist Strike Force Amirs detectives is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or CrimeStoppers.
