Motorcycle club member arrested at Penfield Gardens

A member of an motorcycle club has been arrested following an investigation into drug trafficking.

Police will allege that between 27 March and 21 August, the 41-year-old Penfield Gardens man sold methamphetamine and took part in money laundering.

Officers from the Crime Gangs Task Force arrested the man today and charged him with trafficking in a controlled drug and money laundering.

$11,000 cash and 150 grams of methamphetamine was seized during the investigation.

He was refused bail and will appear in the Elizabeth Magistrates Court today.

Detective Superintendent Steve Taylor, officer in charge of the Serious and Organised Crime Branch says, “Outlaw motorcycle gangs are synonymous with crimes such as illicit drug trafficking and dishonesty offences such as money laundering. SAPOL will continue to target these criminal organisations and disrupt their illegal activities.”

Motorcycle club’s name remains unrevealed.
