‘They are breaking all the rules’: Bikie insiders slam defiant new members

An “untouchable” new wave of bikie recruits are copping heat from the old guard over their refusal to abide by the rules of war, inside sources have revealed.

Old-school bikies are furious at the new wave of hell-raisers who joined their clubs because the recruits refuse to live by a “code” which once helped avoid heat from police.

“They are breaking all the rules … they don’t have a code,” one bikie insider said.

The source claimed shooting at residential properties was always off-limits and all warfare was to take place on the open road.

“The code is do not hit personal homes, do not hit personal workshops while the open road has always been a fair go. Those guys don’t give a f. k. They started the drive-by shootings and they think they are untouchable,” he said.

Sydney has been dogged for two years by seemingly endless drive-by shootings on homes, gyms and other businesses. Fourteen underworld murders in the last two years have all been in suburban or CBD locations.

Accordingly, police have responded with sweeping raids and constant harassment of bikies and their associates. Many of the outlaw motorcycle clubs have distanced themselves from the troublemakers and kicked them out of their ranks.

“We have always had an understanding with the police. They have left us alone because if there was any trouble they knew the clubs would sort it out among ourselves,” the insider said.

NSW Police has a list of up to 400 targets as they try to keep a lid on Sydney’s bloody gang wars, most of them are not traditional bikies, many are members of well-known crime families like the Hamzys and Alameddines.

Some are current bikies.

A senior law enforcement source said there was a lot of tension between the “old school” bikies and newer members, some of which came from street crime gangs and crime families.

The bikies turned to outside groups at different times to bolster their numbers.

NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb revealed in The Daily Telegraph recently that 20 suspected underworld figures have been identified by police as the “masters” of Sydney’s gang war.

The further list of up to 400 which police are said by a source to be “chasing up and keeping an eye on” are understood to be largely associates of the warring clans.
