The Road To War: The Brothers For Life members still being targeted

Two members of Brothers For Life, who survived a shooting, are still being targeted in the underworld more than a decade later.

Two Brothers For Life members, Mohammed “Little Crazy”‘ Hamzy and Omar Ajaj, who survived a shooting that claimed the life of Mahmoud Hamzy in the gang war, are still being targeted in the underworld more than a decade later.

Hamzy was jailed in 2014 for manslaughter but left Australia within weeks of being released from jail in 2022 because he and police knew there was a multimillion-dollar contract on his life.

Both Little Crazy and Ajaj were in a garage of a home in Bardot Place at Revesby Heights in 2013 when three gunmen tried to kill him but instead fatally wounded his innocent cousin, Mahmoud Hamzy, and hit Ajaj twice in the stomach.

At the time Hamzy, also known as “LC”, was the boss of the Bankstown chapter of BFL and Farhad Qaumi, boss of the Blacktown chapter, had sent orders to kill him.

After the failed hit, Mohammed Hamzy was eventually arrested in 2015 for the 2012 murder of another Brothers for Life member, Yehya Amoud.

Hamzy was attempting to shoot another gang member who had insulted his wife.

Hamzy was known to be upset at the fact he had shot and killed his friend Amoud by mistake and was eventually found guilty of manslaughter.

As his release date in 2023 approached, the underworld was swirling with whispers there was a $2m contract on his life and he would be shot with in days of getting out of prison.

NSW Police eventually relaxed his parole conditions so he could leave the country for the protection of himself, his family and the community.

“There are some in the criminal world that will always have targets on their back – Little Crazy is one,‘’ a senior police officer said. “That world is treacherous and they often have long memories.”

In 2022, Ajaj told a Liverpool court he was still in fear of his life and that was why police had found a flick knife in his house during a firearms prohibition order search.

A Liverpool home, where his relatives are thought to live, has been shot at multiple times, the latest three weeks ago.
