'I'm a tourist ... not a terrorist': Merrylands man posts happy snaps on Facebook after anti-terror raids

 A MAN allegedly recruited from Sydney to fight in the Syrian civil war has declared himself a "tourist" not "a terrorist".


Mehmet Biber, 21, one of six men allegedly sent to fight in Syria with rebel forces, posted happy snaps and a message to friends after raids by anti-terror authorities in Sydney on Tuesday.

"I'm a tourist not a terrorist," Mr Biber, of Merrylands, in Sydney's west, wrote beside four photographs of various landmarks which indicate he is in Istanbul, Turkey.

The posting was prompted after his name emerged during a bail hearing for alleged ringleader Hamdi Alqudsi, 39, who was arrested in the raids.

Police allege Biber was one of several men sent by a network of individuals, lead by Alqudsi, to "engage in armed hostilities" in Syria.

Biber's earlier postings from late October indicate time spent in Syria. They include pictures of bombed out buildings, injured children and a dead aid worker. A video uploaded from a mobile phone shows rebel forces firing at a helicopter.

He has also previously quoted the deceased US-born Yemeni cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, who had been described by NSW counter terror chief Peter Dein as one of the most dangerous men in the world.

Biber's family claim he left Australia to go on holiday.

Police have also identified links between Biber and members of the street gang Brothers For Life. One of those gang members, Hicham Ismail, is on remand facing sentencing next year for a brutal assault.

That link is one of several that have emerged between Sydney's religious Islamic community and the BFL street gang.

Other links have also been brought to light through the work of a police taskforce known as Strike Force Maloney, which has been investigating an attempted murder outside a sex club at Rydalmere on May 1.

One man charged with the alleged shooting is Osama Sarwat Toffic, identified by police as an associate of the BFL gang.

Toffic was arrested as he tried to board a flight for Germany, en route to Turkey, on November 15.

Police will allege Wassim Fayad, 46, a figurehead during last year's Muslim riots, assisted Toffic to leave Australia.

Fayad has been charged with being an accessory to the attempted murder, along with two other men, including Wesam Hamze, 29, a first-cousin to BFL founder Bassam Hamzy.

Hamzy, a follower of radical Islam, is presently in Supermax jail.

Middle Eastern Organised Crime Squad Commander Deb Wallace said a number of BFL members had an interest in Islam, however their motives for crime were not based on religion.

"Certainly some arrested recently have been more involved in Islam but it's not because of that they are involved in criminal activity," Det Supt Wallace said.

"There have been cases where they might say a particular crime is based on religious reasons, but that to me is an excuse."



While the BFL leadership were weakened a series of arrests last month, one issue remaining for police is the emergence of its Blacktown chapter, which is stacked with Afghans and Middle Eastern recruits.

It is lead by a man who cannot be named, due to a court order, but he is known locally as "The Afghan".

He has beaten three separate murder charges and was recruited directly by Hamzy while in jail.

His younger brother was recently charged over the alleged shooting of rival BFL gang members during a drug turf war in Bankstown.

Washed Karimi, 18, also born in another Afghanistan, was charged in relation to that shooting. His older brother Mohammed Karimi is serving a minimum 30-years jail over the unrelated 2010 murder of security guard Kesley Burgess.

A third man charged over the Chokolatta shooting is Iranian Mobin Merzaei, 22.

He is the younger brother of Mesbah Merzaei, 25, who was charged over the attempted extortion of a smash repairer in North Sydney.

Det Supt Wallace said the recruitment of siblings was not a new trend.

"The idea is hopefully these young ones grow up and grow out," he said.

Police had no tip-off on Sydney shooting

A MAN living in a southwest Sydney house that has been shot at three times this year is well known to police and involved in gangs.

A man fired nine shots from a handgun into the Greenfield Park house on Tuesday night before fleeing, police say.

The house was also targeted by gunmen in June and July.

Deputy Commissioner Nick Kaldas said the three people living in the house were unharmed but were cooperating with police in a limited way.

"There was a number of family members inside the house, one of whom is a 24-year-old male, who is actually well known to us," Mr Kaldas told reporters in Sydney on Wednesday.

He said the man was linked to a number of criminal gangs but not the notorious Brothers 4 Life gang.

Mr Kaldas rubbished remarks by the family that police had prior warning about the shooting and had visited the home three times on Tuesday.

"They received one visit earlier in the day and it was from Operation Talon as part of their tasking they carry out on an ongoing basis," he said.

"We had no information they were at risk."

The 24-year-old man is before the courts and on bail, police confirmed.

Operation Talon, which is focused on tackling gun crime in Sydney, has resulted in more than 140 arrests and 135 charges in the past few months.

Officers have also had more than 5000 interactions with the people they have been tasked to check up on.

Opposition Leader John Robertson said the state government should use laws already at its disposal to outlaw the gangs shooting up western Sydney.

"(Premier) Barry O'Farrell has the power in his hands to outlaw these gangs and give the police the opportunity to shut these clubs down," he said.

Mr Robertson said there had been 302 shootings since Mr O'Farrell became premier and 119 so far this year.

However, Mr Kaldas said the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOCSAR) would release figures on Thursday showing that the number of shootings had been halved.

"We feel that we have halved the number of incidents; we are not stopping them obviously."

THREE people have escaped injury after shots were fired into their home in Sydney's south-west, in what police believe was a targeted attack.

Two men and a woman were inside when several shots were fired into the home in Sherack Place at Minto, near Campbelltown, shortly after 11pm (AEDT) on Monday, police said.

Several bullets penetrated the front of the home, but no-one was injured.

Police believe the shooting was a targeted attack and detectives and specialist police are conducting further inquiries.

It is the latest of several shootings in Sydney in recent months.

Police are urging anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

November 18, 2013

A BROTHERS 4 Life associate, who was arrested just before boarding a flight to Germany, has been charged with a shooting outside a Sydney sex club.

Police received a tip-off that Osama Sarwat Toffic, 19, was planning to leave Australia just hours before he was arrested at Sydney International Airport on Saturday night.

It's alleged Toffic was the gunman in the attack on Michael Rooke in the carpark of gay, bisexual and swingers club Aarows in Rydalmere on May 1.

The 52-year-old victim survived the attack after three bullets missed his heart and spine by centimetres and police say he was not linked to a criminal gang.

Toffic, of Auburn, has been charged with several offences including shooting with intent to murder, discharging a firearm with intent to inflict grievous bodily harm, assault with intent to rob and the possession of a prohibited firearm.

He has also been charged with stealing a motor vehicle, destroying the car with fire in Granville and stealing a van in Harris Park.

Toffic did not apply for bail in Parramatta Bail Court yesterday and was remanded to appear in Burwood Local Court on Wednesday.

Brothers for Life founder Bassam Hamzy 'used a woman posing as his lawyer to communicate with the outside world'

November 16 2013

BROTHERS 4 Life founder Bassam Hamzy allegedly communicated with the outside world from inside his Supermax prison cell through a woman who posed as his lawyer, Corrective Services authorities believe.

BACKYARD ARMS TRADER FOR BIKIES

The legal secretary was allegedly given access to Hamzy this year but was recently banned from further visits.
Her presence allegedly enabled Hamzy to circumvent the otherwise tightly-controlled provisions placed on detainees at Goulburn Supermax prison that see inmates' food and mail screened.

Authorities believe Hamzy was able to use the legal visits to direct activity by the Brothers 4 Life crime gang.
Having shut down this line of communication, authorities do not believe Hamzy played any role in recent tit-for-tat violence among gang members that last month culminated in the fatal shooting of Hamzy's relative Mahmoud Hamzy at a home in Revesby Heights.

A reputable source also said other individuals given access to Bassam Hamzy under the guise of legal visits had also been banned from seeing him at Goulburn jail.
Although Hamzy's phone calls and correspondence are monitored, legal visits remain privileged, meaning they cannot be monitored and documents cannot be examined.

A department spokeswoman refused to be drawn on the matter when asked if an investigation had been launched.
"We won't comment on a security matter such as this," the spokeswoman said.
A spokeswoman for Attorney-General Greg Smith said he also could not comment.
It is understood an investigation determined Hamzy had been able to disseminate documents and messages through his "legal representatives", including the female secretary.

It is understood a broader investigation concerning prison visitors is still under way.
Hamzy is currently serving a 22-year sentence for murder over the 1998 shooting of Kris Toumazis outside a Darlinghurst nightclub.

Sydney's Occupied Territories: Sheik refused bail after accessory to murder charges laid in Burwood Court

'Sheikh' in court on woman 'set alight'

YahooNews
November 15, 2013, 4:14 pm

A self-styled sheikh who sent offensive letters to the families of dead Australian soldiers has faced court in connection to the murder of a woman.

Man Haron Monis, 59, fronted Burwood Local Court charged with being an accessory before and after the fact to the murder of a woman allegedly stabbed and set alight in a western Sydney stairwell earlier this year.

Monis, also known as Sheikh Haron, was arrested along with a woman who earlier on Friday was charged with murder.

Dressed in black tracksuit pants and with a beard, Monis didn't apply for bail and it was formally refused by Magistrate Christopher Longley.

Emergency workers found the woman's body in the Werrington apartment block on April 21 after responding to a fire.

The 30-year-old had allegedly been stabbed multiple times and set alight.

Police say the three people knew each other.

Amirah Droudis, who is believed to be the partner of Monis, was charged with murdering Noleen Hayson Pal.

She sat quietly in the dock, wearing a black blouse and with her long dark hair out.

Her lawyer said she wouldn't apply for bail and it was formally refused.

The pair will appear in Penrith Local Court on November 22.

Monis was previously sentenced to 300 hours of community service and placed on a two-year good behaviour bond for 12 counts of using a postal service to cause offence.

Droudis was sentenced to a two-year bond for aiding and abetting him.

Monis had sent offensive letters to the grieving families of seven soldiers killed in Afghanistan between 2007 and 2009.

The self-employed spiritual adviser and astrologer also wrote to the family of trade official Craig Senger, who was killed in the 2009 Marriott Hotel bombing in Jakarta.

In the letters, Monis likened soldiers to murderers and killers, and in one letter said a digger was going to hell.

A glimpse inside the past of Sydney's bikie war victims

Janet Fife - Yeomans
The Daily Telegraph
August 12 2013

AT least 11 had done time behind bars, four were on bail, most were bikies and all of them were known to police.

The victims of the city's deadly gun wars were figures used to looking over their shoulders: one had been inside over a double murder, another two had been suspects in homicides and one had caused a death by dangerous driving in a car chase reaching 150km/h.

But they left behind grieving wives, girlfriends and families, children who will grow up without a father.

Matthew Hedges, 25, who was shot through a window at his Chester Hill home on December 31 last year not long after his release from jail was a father of four.

CRIME: Sydney gangs flash diamonds and guns in new wave of violence

Two of his children, aged two and four, were in the house when he was murdered.

"It makes absolutely no difference to a police investigation what the background or the involvement of any victim is," Detective Chief Superintendent Mal Lanyon, head of the organised crime directorate, said yesterday. "No family should have to go through what the family of anyone murdered has to go through."

With legal gun ownership in Australia back at pre-Port Arthur massacre levels, police believe they are making headway against illegal firearms. In the 2012-2013 financial year, police seized 9506 illegal firearms, 729 of them handguns, the type of guns commonly used in the slayings.

Supt Lanyon is also head of Operation Apollo, targeting gun crime, and said police still faced a wall of silence as they investigated the underworld slayings. "We don't receive a lot of information or support from the type of witnesses we would hope to get information from," he said.

BIKIE WAR: Man shot in neck in Sydney's south

While there have been a number of arrests over the slayings, he appealed for the families of these men to speak up about what they know.

"That is why we also work so hard to take illegal firearms off the street because while there are illegal firearms in the community there is the potential for those who wish to engage in conflict to settle that conflict with those firearms," Supt Lanyon said.

The gun wars have claimed 18 men since the O'Farrell government took office, in shootings mostly blamed on drugs and revenge.

Some were linked to an escalating turf war between the Hells Angels and Comanchero bikie gangs, others were members of the Brothers For Life street gang, founded by Australia's highest-security prisoner and murderer Basam Hamzy.

Lone Wolf bikie Neal Todorovski, 37, shot through the back during a row outside his Sans Souci unit on January 4 last year, was farewelled in a $42,000 gold-plated coffin paid for in cash by his bikie mates.

SHOOTING: Bikie slain as two die in Sydney gun mayhem

Former Comanchero Darko Janceski, 32, who had left the gang on bad terms a year before his death in April last year, had been linked by police to the investigation of two suspected murders. His crimes included dangerous driving causing death and malicious wounding of a man who lost an ear.

His house had been burnt down and for months before he was shot dead in Berkeley, Janceski had been in fear for his life. He was on bail for possessing drugs and stealing cars from his employer.

Gemahl Maika, 38, a father of two, was due to give evidence in a trial involving a multi-million-dollar cocaine syndicate when he was gunned down in April 2011.

Detectives found a bundle of $50 notes the size of a house brick and other cash totalling more than $31,000 in the car of Hussein Khanafer, 31, not long before he was shot dead in February at Blackett.

Police believe a single Middle Eastern crime syndicate is behind five killings: that of Roy Yaghi, 33, a drugs cook for the Hells Angels; Jamie Grover, 27; Comanchero bikie Faalau Pisu, 23, at a wedding; Ali Eid, 38, and his relative Bachir Arja, 28. 

Dying Khaled Kahwaji asked to name his attacker

Dying man asked to name his attacker

The Daily Telegraph
March 16, 2013 12:00AM

A DYING man who was shot in the head in Sydney's southwest yesterday was desperately asked by police to name his attacker using his last breaths.

The Sunday Telegraph has confirmed the deceased man is Khaled Kahwaji, who was charged with the murder of Saba Kairouz in August 2010.

Kahwaji was named on social media last night about 7pm though police asked it be withheld from publication for operational reasons.

Investigators are focusing their main line of inquiry to include a retaliation attack in relation to that murder, but are also investigating links with the shooting of a crime family matriarch on Auburn road at Auburn last Saturday.

The victim in that case, revealed by this newspaper earlier this week, was the aunt of Supermax inmate Bassam Hamzy, the founder of the organised crime group Brothers For Life.

Police later said they were bracing for an escalation in violence over the attack, which saw her shot four times in the legs at her front door.

Witnesses living on Wilbur St at Greenacre said they tried to help Kahwaji as he lay on the road just after being shot in the back of the head about 6pm last night.

The shooting happened outside a home which was later surrounded by police tactical operatives and the dog squad, who ordered the occupants, on loud speaker, to come outside.

After approximately one hour they then stormed the premises, though no arrests were made.

"We were trying to talk to him and just saying 'can you hear us'," a neighbour, who heard about five shots, told The Sunday Telegraph.

"The first thing police asked him was 'do you know who did this'."

Two search warrants were carried out by heavily armed officers later in the evening on the same street.

Police, the Homicide Squad and about seven riot squad officers have today returned to the scene, blocking off Wilbur st to door knock homes and conduct a line search for further evidence.

Police described the killing of Kahwaji, believed to be 30 years old, as a targeted attack.

He was shot a number of times, including the back of the head, while sitting in a Silver Mazda 3 on leafy Wilbur Lane about 6.15pm.

His body was found lying next to the car which had bullet holes in the driver's side door and about another three in the windscreen.

"This is not a random incident. This person has been targeted and it's certainly not something that is random," Bankstown police Superintendent Dave Eardley said.

"It's certainly an act that's quite vicious and callous."

In a shocking scene now regularly confronting residents of Sydney's western and southwestern suburbs, the street was shut down as more than 30 police scoured the area for evidence.

Forensic detectives and investigators from the Homicide Squad were also called in to assess the scene. Local residents returning from work were unable to enter their homes as the street was blocked off for about 100m.

Police cars and ambulance vans also clogged the street.

A group, believed to be members of the man's family, arrived on the scene soon after police arrived. There were hysterical scenes as several women in the group made their way towards the police barrier to view the body.

Police said it was too soon to say if the killing was related to motorcycle gangs but Supt Eardley said investigators were "not ruling anything out".

Yesterday's killing marks the 35th shooting in NSW this year - more than three a week - with 10 this month alone.

Brutal story ends as kneecapper freed

Paul Bibby
SMH
March 15, 2013


Some time on Friday Saleh Jamal will walk out of the South Coast Correctional Centre at Nowra as a free man.
Few on the street will recognise his bearded face or his name.
But the police who worked at Lakemba police station in November 1998 will remember, and the news of his release is likely to raise more than a few hackles.


In 1998 the notorious ''DK's Boys'' gang carried out a drive-by shooting on the Lakemba police station that left the building a mess of shattered glass, and much of Sydney in a state of uproar.

The shooting had five officers ducking for cover as 16 bullets from semi-automatic pistols passed through the station's foyer windows. Then police commissioner Peter Ryan pledged to track down those responsible and to make the streets of Sydney safe.
In May 2009 Jamal became the only person found guilty over the shooting as charges against the other men were dropped or not proven beyond reasonable doubt. He was later sentenced to a maximum of 12 years' jail for a range of charges including shooting with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.


Last Friday Jamal was quietly acquitted in the Downing Centre District Court after a 12-day retrial.
''Thank you, your honour, may God bless you and your family,'' a jubilant Jamal said.
The acquittal by Judge Steven Norrish coincided with the end of a nine-year jail sentence Jamal was serving for kneecapping a rival drug dealer at Greenacre in October 1998, a month before the Lakemba shooting.
''God willing I will be released next Friday,'' he told the court.
Jamal's release is a remarkable twist in what has been a dramatic and at times brutal and bloody story. For more than a decade the 37-year-old was one of the key members of DK's Boys, named after their leader Danny Karam, who ultimately perished in a hail of bullets from his own gang mates.
During the 1990s DK's Boys challenged Sydney's major players for a slice of the city's illegal drug market and, briefly, for a piece of the Kings Cross nightclub scene, with a brutal strategy that involved kneecappings and multiple murders.
In 2004, after being arrested and charged over the Lakemba shoot-out, Jamal fled to Lebanon with a false passport while on bail.
There he was subsequently arrested and jailed by the Lebanese government on charges of possessing weapons and explosives, planning acts that endangered state security, and possessing a false passport.
His five-year sentence for these crimes was later cut to two years after a Lebanese court ruled that only the passport conviction could be upheld.
In October 2006 he was extradited to Sydney where, in 2008, he was sentenced to nine years' jail for the 1998 kneecapping of a rival drug dealer at Greenacre.
The gang combusted in a fight with police on a White City tennis court in December 2008.
Last year, Jamal's conviction was quashed on appeal and a re-trial ordered.
Among the main reasons for the decision by the three-judge panel of the NSW Court of Criminal Appeal was that Jamal had not been permitted to accompany the jury when, as part of the trial, it visited the scene of the alleged crime.
In the Downing District Court this month Jamal faced the lesser charge of discharging a firearm in a public place.
He was found not guilty by Judge Norrish, hearing the matter without a jury.
He will hand down his reasons for the decision later this month.

Man jailed over cop shop shooting attack
By Janet Fife-Yeomans
The Daily Telegraph
May 28, 2010

A FORMER gang member has been jailed twelve years after a shooting attack on a Sydney police station.
Saleh Jamal will be behind bars at least until 2016 for his role in the attack on Lakemba police station in 1998.
Officers dived for their lives as a volley of bullets smashed into the station glass doors.

One hit a computer screen at head height.Judge Helen Morgan in the District Court today said it was a direct attack on one of the state’s law enforcement agencies.
“This attack was committed as an act of revenge against the police out of a misguided belief that they were unfairly targeting Lebanese,” she said.
The judge said they aimed to intimidate police and deter them from carrying out heir lawful duties.
Jamal, 35, was convicted by jury of discharging a firearm with intend to cause grievous bodily harm
He was a member of “DK’s Boys” an organised crime outfit headed by Danny Karam and was the get away driver when they targeted Lakemba police station in the night-time attack.
Judge Morgan rejected Jamal’s please for mercy on the grounds that it has taken so long for the case to come to trial.
She said that he was the architect of his own downfall.
His earlier trail in 2004, was aborted after he said he was ill.
He then fled to Lebanon on a false passport where he was jailed in Beirut after being convicted of terrorism offences.
The terrorism convictions was overturned on appeal and he was extradited in 2006 and in 2007 jailed in NSW for up to nine years for kidnapping arrival during a shootout at Greenacre in 1998.
His brother Mohammed Omar Jamal was convicted last year over a terrorist plot targeting Sydney Lucas Heights’ nuclear reactor.
Judge Morgan sentenced Jamal to a total of 12 years with a minimum of six and a half.
She said although he was the getaway driver he was as culpable as the gun who fired the shots into the police station.

A WOMAN was shot in the suffered gunshot wounds to her eg - seven months after her teenage son almost died in a shooting at the same address in Auburn.

Police are also investigating whether the shooting of the woman in Auburn Rd at 2.40pm Saturday was linked to a drive-by attack 20 minutes later in nearby Provincial St.

A 43-year-old woman was admitted to Auburn Hospital in a stable condition following the incident in Auburn Rd, Auburn.

So what do you do you do when someone you know or a relative has been SHOT ?

Attack the Police of course, hey that will fix everything!!!! the shooter/s will immediately come forward and surrender to Police, the victims injuries will be immediately healed, and before you know it it will be like nothing ever happened ..

Her son, 16, had undergone life-saving surgery after he was shot in the stomach last August.

Police said shots were fired from a moving vehicle at a house on Provincial Street in the same suburb at 3pm Saturday. No one was injured.

Police established crime scenes at both addresses.

An officer at Flemington local area command, who asked not to be named, said it was unclear whether the two incidents were connected but police had received different descriptions for the cars involved in each shooting.

"We've got no way of knowing (if they are linked) at this moment,'' the officer said.

"There were two different vehicles described. Both black cars. One is described as something and one is described as something else.''

February 28, 20131:12PM

FOUR men who took part in the whipping of a Muslim convert as punishment for him drinking alcohol and taking drugs have been found guilty of assault in Sydney.

Christian Martinez, 32, was whipped with an electric cord at his home in Silverwater in Sydney's west between July 16 and 17 in 2011.

His mentor, Wasim Fayed, was accused of carrying out the whipping as punishment under sharia law, while the other three men held Mr Martinez down on his bed.

Fayed, 44, along with Zakaryah Raad, 21, Tolga Cifki, 21, and Gengiz Coskin, 22, pleaded not guilty to charges of assault occasioning bodily harm, causing harm in company and stealing.

Fayed also faced two charges of intimidation.

Magistrate Brian Maloney convicted the men in Burwood Local Court today.

He will sentence them at a later date.

Retired carpenter Toufic Zahab beheaded in a horror family feud

Simon Black 
The Daily Telegraph 
February 15, 2013 12:00AM

A RETIRED carpenter was allegedly beheaded by his son during a domestic dispute at a house full of children in Bankstown yesterday.

It is believed the victim, Toufic Zahab, 69, came to his wife's defence as she was being assaulted by their 42-year-old son Khoder Zahab.

Up to seven children were at home when much-loved Mr Zahab was allegedly attacked with a brick and knife in his Stacey St home shortly after 6am.

It is alleged that, moments earlier, his wife suffered candle burns and had been kicked down a flight of stairs.

She then watched helplessly as her husband died.

Police found the man dead inside the lounge room of the home with horrific injuries.

According to neighbours, Mr Zahab's visibly distraught wife was taken from the scene in an ambulance to Bankstown Hospital where she was treated by doctors.

Shocked police said the scene inside the family's home was so disturbing, officers who attended were receiving counselling.

"The scene was quite disturbing," Detective Chief Inspector Glen Fitzgerald said.

"It has been a difficult morning for both the family and police." It is understood Mr Zahab owned both units in the duplex where he was attacked.

Several other relatives, including the children, were at home at the time.

Mr Zahab's grandson Abdul Elesh said his grandparents had allowed their son to sleep in the house as a favour after a family dinner.

"They're warm people, generous people," Mr Elesh said.

"He (Toufic) was always welcoming. They are a great family.

"Everyone's devastated and shocked."

Another relative claimed Khoder Zahab suffered from a mental disorder.

Police confirmed the victim had been decapitated and Khoder Zahab was known to police. Zahab, of Villawood, was arrested at the house.

He was taken to Bankstown police station, where he was charged with murder, assaulting police and common assault.

The man faced Bankstown Local Court yesterday and was refused bail to appear at Burwood Local Court on April 10.

Police set up a major crime scene and northbound traffic on Stacey St was diverted for several hours as extensive forensic examinations were carried out by scientific officers.

Motorists travelling through the area are advised to consider alternate routes and expect delays.

Sydney's Occupied Territories: Omar Abukhaled,27,was refused bail yesterday over the assaulting police and resisting arrest

Sydney's Occupied Territories Omar Abukhaled,27,was refused bail yesterday over the assaulting police and resisting arrest

Various sources compiled by ANV
5 Jan 2013.

Two constables dealing with an apprehended violence order against a 27-year-old on parole in Sydney's west were allegedly spat on and punched.

The man and his partner, a 46-year-old woman, were subsequently charged with assaulting police and resisting arrest after the attack at a unit in Carramar on Thursday at 1.40pm, police said.

Police said the woman threw a glass vase at a female officer, missing her, then struck her in the face and grabbed her around the throat. That officer received a black eye in the struggle.
Fairfield Inspector Raven Maharaj said the two officers are "fine and just suffering minor injuries."

"Unfortunately this happens quite a bit," he said. "Police attend to serve a brief or follow up a complaint that someone is breaching an AVO then it turns ugly when police arrive".

Police allege that as they attempted to arrest the man the woman grabbed one of the officers, while the man Omar Abukhaled,struck the other on the back of his head and spat in his face.

NSW arrests over US gun ring

TWO men wanted for firearms and drugs offences in the US have been arrested in Sydney.

The men, aged 31 and 44, were detained by NSW police yesterday following requests from US authorities for their provisional arrest pending their extradition.

Yesterday's arrests follow an investigation into an alleged illegal gun supply route operating between Nashville, Tennessee and Sydney.

NSW police and Australian Customs and Border Protection Service have been working on the investigation with the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) and the US Drug Enforcement Administration since last year.

In October 2012, officers from the NSW police firearms and organised crime squad and Australian Customs were present during raids by the ATF in Nashville, which resulted in a number of arrests.

The multi-agency investigation is ongoing.
