GANGLAND heiress Dhakota Williams is set to reveal who put the hit on her beloved drug kingpin father that had him killed in jail.

GANGLAND heiress Dhakota Williams is set to reveal who put the hit on her beloved drug kingpin father that had him killed in prison eight years ago.

The 17-year-old daughter of notorious Melbourne gangster Carl Williams tells 60 Minutes, “to this day I still haven’t really spoken about it [her father’s murder].

“I don’t think I believed it at the start.

“I just don’t anyone to think … ‘what a silly girl’ you know?”

The interview with Dhakota and her mother Roberta, in which the teenager will answer whether she is her “father’s daughter” will screen on Sunday.

Dhakota is speaking out for the first time about the murder of her father, who was bludgeoned to death in Melbourne’s Barwon prison with a metal bicycle part in 2010.

Images of then nine-year-old Dhakota clutching a teddy bear as underworld figures farewelled her father Carl’s gangster-style gold coffin made national headlines.

Next Sunday’s interview will reportedly reveal what it was like to lose her father and how his death put her under the spotlight.

Dhakota Williams is now 17 and ready to reveal.

The 17-year-old daughter of notorious Melbourne gangster Carl Williams tells 60 Minutes, “to this day I still haven’t really spoken about’ her father’s murder.

Dhakota is also involved in a fight with the Australian Taxation Office for a slice of her million-dollar gangland inheritance.

Dhakota and the drug lord’s widow Roberta Williams are battling the seemingly indomitable Australian Taxation Office over their house, which has played a colourful part in Melbourne’s underbelly wars.

Dhakota was still a young girl when her father was imprisoned for four murders of Moran crime family rivals in Melbourne’s notorious gangland wars.

Roberta Williams says the house bequeathed to Dhakota is part of a deal struck with Victorian Police for information her late husband supplied.

Dhakota Williams is a Year 11 student who reportedly wants to become a lawyer and right the wrongs of her father’s death.

Secret talks between Carl Williams and police about the murders in Melbourne’s bloody seven-year gang war, which ended in 2006, are believed to be linked to his jail murder.

Dhakota told 60 Minutes she admits to “wanting revenge”.

In an interview with The Daily Telegraph last month, Dhakota said she wants to “become a lawyer” and her mother Roberta said Carl would be “super proud” of his daughter.

Dhakota previously told Channel 7’s Sunday Night program she remembered her father, who she visited in prison, with affection.

“We know our dad as our dad, not what he’s described as in the newspapers,” she said.
