Underworld assassins caught on camera before Australian crime boss executed

Wow first Melbourne and now Sydney,damn the Australia is most violent than I thinked maybe will do a new underbelly season.
Its strange that the ndrangheta was defeated by a bunch of bikers.

This Barbaro guy dont strike me as a typical Ndranghetisti.

The Barbaros used to be men of honour, but the younger generation are cocaine cowboys, his cousin was killed in the Melbourne gang war.

The brother of Barbaro couldn't handle his death and took his own life.

The Barbaros from Plati are divided in 3 different Clans.

Barbaro Pillari, Barbaro Nigri, and Barbaro Castanu.

The Barbaro Ndrina are one of the most Powerful in Calabria,

and the Castanus are Married with the Very Powerful Pelle Clan from San Luca.

I think the Australian Barbaros are more weak than this Clans.

Here a good Link.

The Barbaro family lost a lot of influence after Pasquale “Il Principale” Barbaro became an informer and was shot dead on March 19, 1990.

So this guy got beat up in jail then when he got out talked shit about the guy and had to pay him 300K?Lol it doesnt sound like a gangster.Do you really think a real Ndraghnata would of done that.

Mahmoud Hawi dies after being shot outside Sydney gym

Mick Hawi, ex-Comanchero biker boss. Ex everything now.

It was Mahmoud 'Mick' Hawi who began the trend in Australia of recruiting Lebanese males into Australian biker gangs.

Before that, I suspect most bike gangs would be too racist to allow Lebs.

The Muslim Lebanese (and Middle Easterners in general) are now behind shitloads of the organized crime in Australia, and I don't think they know how to be as discrete or as low-key as the Italians. Lebs like to be a lot more in-your-face, and they tend to move in groups. They're never tough when they're on their own.

Underworld crime boss Bilal Hamze shot and killed in Sydney's CBD

Is it all Arabs and other Muslims there? Both the victim and rival behind it were if I am not mistaken.

They have legislation in Australia, basically deeming 1% clubs as terrorists, because of the infiltration by ISIL, specifically the Arabs and Muslims. They had ISIL attacks in 2015, I believe?

If look you at Canada it’s the same thing, instead of a RICO in Canada, they should use the Patriot Act IMO

Middle Eastern gangs play a prominent role in the Australian underworld. Not all of them are Muslim though. The Lebanese crime families mostly are Muslim (though there are also quite a few gangsters of Maronite Christian background) but there's also Assyrian organized crime and these are Chaldean Catholics.

Outlaw motorcycle gangs are heavy in the Australian underworld as well and their members are largely of British, Irish, Maltese and other European background. I'd even go as far to say that bikers are the number one factor in organized crime in Australia.

Vietnamese gangs have lots of operations in Australia and there are Pacific Islander gangs as well. Pacific Islanders are not as prominent over there as they are in the New Zealand underworld, but they're around and are largely used as muscle for the outlaw motorcycle gangs.

Ndrangheta are also around in Australia; big time operations, but a bit under the radar these days.

The first war in the 80s.

The Sydney gangland war (or the Gang wars) were a series of murders and killings of several known criminal figures and their associates that took place in Sydney, Australia, during the 1980s.[1] A vast majority of the murders were seen as retributive killings and attempts to control the Sydney's drug trade and expansion of criminal territory.

Thanks for the info here.
I’d not mentioned earlier anyone interested should look at Blue Murder. Not exactly 100% true and didnt cover everything but it was a close snapshot of the Wild West that Sydney was in those years. Cops and killers as best mates.

Good to see you around.

Another hit..

Police had issued a chilling warning months before Ghassan Amoun? was killed in a brazen daylight execution as he sat in a BMW outside an apartment building in western Sydney.

The gangland figure and younger brother of notorious Brothers 4 Life leader Bassam Hamzy was shot dead about 12.45pm on Thursday not long after he walked free from a short prison sentence.

Six months earlier, police warned that Mr Amoun, 35, was the next target in Sydney’s bloody underworld feud as a court granted him permission to attend the funeral of his slain cousin, crime boss Bilal Hamze.

In October Salim Hamze and Toufik Hamze were also killed in a double shooting.

Ghassan Amoun laid to rest.
