Conference on Outlaw Bikers at Casino Attended by
Outlaw Bikers 5th May 2009

"Yesterday
the Hells Angel's met up with some law enforcements
top brass at Darwin SkyCity Hotel and Casino in the
most unusual of circumstances. I can't help wondering
whether they stopped in to sink a few cold ones to
watch Network Nine's finally Underbelly screening
of the season," says Greg
Tingle of MediaMan.com.au"
Over
2 million Aussie's enjoyed the explosive finale.
"Legend
has it that a couple of Australian bikie gangs once
re enacted a bike massacre that was in the classic
cult film by Gary Young 'Cosy Cool'," says Tingle.
"Sydney based producer of 'Brothers At War' Richard
Bradley, has been closely monitoring the situation.
It sounds like more episodes of 'Underbelly' are being
written at the speed of news. The thin blue line relationship
continues between Aussie bikers and legal top brass
the world over."
Actually
the bar event was a police conference about outlaw
biker issues, but nobody expected the Hells Angels
to actually attend. That's exactly what happened according
to the Sydney Morning Herald.
Within
hours of the senior police and their entourages arriving
at Darwin's hotel and casino complex, SkyCity, Northern
Territory police security realised the commissioners
were sharing a hotel floor with two Hells Angels.
The
Hells Angels had not arrived to cause problems, but
for "rest, relaxation and a party", a bikie
source said.
From
the Sydney Morning Herald:
"NT
police security assessed the situation and gave the
two members the option to change their rooms,"
a NT police spokeswoman confirmed. "The two members
declined and chose to take accommodation elsewhere."
In
one of the more humorous moments, the two Hells Angels
arrived to get on a commercial fishing boat the day
after the conference ended only to find six police
commissioners also planning a spot of fishing.
"The
members were interrogated by police as to what they
were doing there - you know, assassination plot or
fishing plan," the bikie source said.
However,
he said the federal police commissioner, Mick Keelty,
"went into a hyper state" after running
into two Hells Angels in the foyer of SkyCity.
A
spokesman for Mr Keelty said there was no "incident
or interaction whatsoever with the commissioner and
any bikies or bikie associates".
"We
do not support any of your source's views aside from
the fact that the commissioner was in attendance at
the conference," he said.
"To
report on anything other than this would not be factual
and something we would take a very dim view of.''
