  • Outlaw Motorcycle Clubs and Organized Crime
    Klaus von Lampe and Arjan Blokland Outlaw Motorcycle Clubs and Organized Crime ABSTRACT Outlaw motorcycle clubs have spread across the globe. Their members have been associated with serious crime, and law enforcement often perceives them to be a form of organized crime. Outlaw bikers are disproportionately engaged in crime, but the role of the club itself in these crimes remains unclear. Three scenarios describe possible relations between clubs and the crimes of their members. In the “bad apple” scenario, members individually engage in crime; club membership may offer advantages in enabling and facilitating offending. In the “club within a club” scenario, members engage in crimes separate from the club, but because of the number of members involved, including high-ranking members, the club itself appears to be taking part. The club can be said to function as a criminal organization only when the formal organizational chain of command takes part in organization of the crime, lower level members regard senior members’ leadership in the crime as legitimate, and the crime is generally understood as “club business.” All three scenarios may play out simultaneously within one club with regard to different crimes. Fact and fiction interweave concerning the origins, evolution, and prac- tices of outlaw motorcycle clubs.

  • Desperation in the Indonesian Diaspora - New Mandala Desperation in the Indonesian Diaspora
    4/17/2018 Desperation in the Indonesian diaspora - New Mandala Desperation in the Indonesian diaspora The global success of Satudarah, an outlaw motorcycle gang with roots in the Netherlands' Indonesian community, speaks to the ongoing socioeconomic marginalisation of Indonesian and other diaspora communities in the west. MICHAEL BUEHLER - 17 APR, 2018 In 2012, Dino Patti Djalal, then the Indonesian ambassador to the United States, launched the rst Congress of Indonesian Diasporas. The congress was held in Los Angeles with the aim of increasing the visibility of Indonesians living abroad. The Indonesian government’s publicity campaign culminated in a keynote speech by former US-president Barack Obama at the 4th Congress of Indonesian Diasporas, held at the exclusive Kota Kasablanka shopping and hotel complex in Jakarta in July 2017. The audience at the 2017 congress consisted mainly of business tycoons, military gures, politicians, and starlets from the entertainment industry. For instance, speakers at the panel “Opportunities and Risks for Indonesia” included Sri Mulyani Indrawati, Indonesia’s Finance Minister; Bambang Susantono, Vice-President for Knowledge Management and Sustainable Development of the Asian Development Bank; as well as Helman Sitohang, CEO of Credit Suisse Asia Pacic. Meanwhile, Anies Baswedan, who won Jakarta’s gubernatorial election in April 2017 after delivering racially tinged speeches and cosying up to Islamist vigilante groups, was speaking at the panel “The Role of the Diaspora in Promoting Diversity and Tolerance

  • House of Assembly Tuesday 21 August 2018
    Tuesday 21 August 2018 The Speaker, Ms Hickey, took the Chair at 10 a.m., acknowledged the Traditional People and said Prayers. QUESTIONS Minister for Health - Actions Ms WHITE question to MINISTER for HEALTH, Mr FERGUSON [10.02 a.m.] The Hodgman Government has lurched from crisis to crisis over the past five weeks and you have been at the centre of it all. First you went missing when Tasmanian families desperately needed leadership and information about meningococcal disease. On your watch the health and hospital system has experienced continuous escalations at level four at the Royal Hobart Hospital and code blacks at the Launceston General Hospital. Patients at the Royal are being treated in corridors and on Liverpool Street, with ambulances queued waiting to get into the emergency department. You have forced nursing staff onto the street in protest at the LGH; nursing staff that you have failed to visit for nearly 50 days. You have been forced into a humiliating back down over your secret pre-election changes to gun laws and you have been forced to admit that you discussed the private, very personal medical details of Angela Williamson - specifically how she was forced to travel to Victoria to access a termination - with her employer, leading to her dismissal from Cricket Tasmania. Minister, you have proven to be a liability. Your credibility is in tatters. Your dishonesty has never been more exposed and your disgraceful conduct means that Tasmanians can have no trust in you. Why don’t you do the honourable thing and resign? ANSWER Madam Speaker, what a pathetic start to question time from the Leader of the Opposition who has no policies, tells Tasmanians lies, misleads the parliament - Ms WHITE - Point of order, Madam Speaker.

  • Policing Bikers: Confrontation Or Dialogue?
    Trends Organ Crim https://doi.org/10.1007/s12117-018-9346-7 Policing bikers: confrontation or dialogue? Paul Larsson1 # The Author(s) 2018 Abstract This article deals with the policing of biker groups in Norway. It describes the two idealtypical approaches of dialogue and confrontation. It tries to explain why the police use certain methods. It finds that policing is rarely based on knowledge of what works or the causes of a problem. Instead the approaches chosen seem to reflect certain styles of policing described in cultural studies of the police. Keywords Biker groups . Policing . Organised crime . Social control There are two competing strategies policing bikers in Norway, so the story goes. One of confrontation and zero-tolerance, and a softer one based on dialogue. This article will describe these strategies and raise some questions: What can explain the use of these approaches and do they reflect more substantial differences in policing? Are there different styles of policing? In this article the term outlaw motorcycle gangs (OMCG) will be used. To define outlaw motorcycle gangs (OMCGs) is not an easy task. But the literature points to certain elements that differentiate these clubs from common motorcycle clubs (Barker 2017, Lauchs et al. 2015). First of all they define themselves as outside the mainstream, they are the 1 %, the ones that deviate. The clubs first developed in the US after World War II, some formed by war veterans others mainly by local roughs. They share a certain style of dressing, values and a hierarchical organization. Lifestyle is centred on the bike, usually a Harley Davidson.

  • Les Bandes Criminelles De Motards : Crime Organise, Rivalites Et Contrôle De Territoires
    NOVEMBRE 2014 - MCC LES BANDES CRIMINELLES DE MOTARDS : CRIME ORGANISE, RIVALITES ET CONTRÔLE DE TERRITOIRES François Farcy, Criminologue Etienne Codron, Criminologue Les Satudarah MC à la conquête de l’Europe ! Sept chapitres établis en Belgique en un an (le « chapitre » est la structure de base de l’organisation des bandes criminelles de motards), des chapitres en Allemagne et une omniprésence aux Pays-Bas, les MC Satudarah Maluku et leurs couleurs jaunes et noirs à tête d’indien se sont lancés à la conquête de l’Europe1. Initialement dissidence des Hells Angels aux Pays-Bas, cette organisation criminelle de motards composée au départ de nombreux Moluquois est en pleine expansion et est devenue un farouche ennemi, particulièrement violent, des Hells Angels. Voilà l’actualité de ces dernières semaines ! Mais qui sont ces Bandes Criminelles de motards ? De vraies organisations criminelles ou de simples clubs de motards structurés et parfois impressionnants par leur hiérarchie et leur fonctionnement plutôt folkloriques ? Pourquoi malgré la violente rivalité qui les oppose et leurs activités criminelles avérées est-il si difficile de les faire reconnaître comme organisation criminelle ? Enfin comment s’organisent les chapitres, qui les dirige et comment recrutent-ils, comment s’organise l’implantation des principales organisations, visant toute à contrôler un territoire et des clubs vassaux (Hangaround, Prospects) ? Des évolutions européennes Depuis leurs arrivées en Europe, les principaux gangs de motards (Hells Angels en 1967 à Zurich ; les Bandidos en 1989 à Marseille et les Outlaws en 1993 à Nantes) dominent la scène criminelle « bikers » locale. La totalité des pays européens est touchée et ces gangs sont impliqués dans des affaires de trafic et production de stupéfiants, de trafic d’armes, de contrebande d’alcool et de cigarettes, de fraudes en tous genres, de vols de motos et de voitures, de trafic de pièces détachées, de proxénétisme, d’extorsion de fonds,… et bien sûr de règlements de comptes.

  • Fear of Turf War Between Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs in Europe
    FEAR OF TURF WAR BETWEEN OUTLAW MOTORCYCLE GANGS IN EUROPE 21 Dec 2012 Press Release The arrival of Comancheros and Rebels from Australia, Rock Machine from Canada, plus Mongols and Vagos from the USA creates tension with established outlaw motorcycle clubs in Europe. The number of Outlaw Motorcycle Gang (OMCG) chapters in Europe has increased at a significant rate since 2010 and the total number of chapters is now over 700. The expansion has in particular happened across North-East and South-East Europe. Aside from an increase among the four main groups - Hells Angels Motorcycle Club (MC), Bandidos MC, Outlaws MC and Gremium MC - the increasing number of chapters is also due to the growth of more local groups such as Satudarah Maluku MC and Blue Angels MC in North-West Europe. In addition to the tensions associated with the expansion of established OMCGs, the arrival of new OMCGs from Australia (e.g. Comanchero MC and Rebels MC), Canada (e.g. Rock Machine MC), and the USA (e.g. Mongols MC and Vagos MC) has brought fear of intergroup conflicts in Europe. The main driver for OMCGs to expand is feared to be the desire to increase their role in particular criminal markets by opening chapters in strategic locations, for instance along the trafficking routes for drugs, weapons and human beings. Merely establishing a chapter on the ‘turf’ of another OMCG is interpreted as an act of provocation and is likely to result in violent confrontations and retaliation. The ‘Nordic Biker Wars’ of the 1990s serve as a compelling example of the capacity for extreme violence resulting from an increased concentration of OMCGs in Europe.

  • Uncovering the Organizational Patterns of Hells Angels MC in Sweden
    Trends Organ Crim DOI 10.1007/s12117-017-9310-y Organizing on two wheels: uncovering the organizational patterns of Hells Angels MC in Sweden Amir Rostami1 & Hernan Mondani1 # The Author(s) 2017. This article is an open access publication Abstract During the last decades, Outlaw Motorcycle Clubs (OMCs) have become a concern for crime prevention and law enforcement agencies. The general per- ception of OMCs is ambiguous. They are seen either as highly structured criminal organizations whose members use their motorcycle clubs for conducting sophisticated criminal enterprises, or as clubs built around the camaraderie of freedom-seeking bikers. Using unique Swedish longitudinal data on gang membership and co-offending patterns, we study the organizational dynamics of Hells Angels MC Sweden and its sub-organizations Red & White Crew and Red Devils MC. Our results reveal a complex picture. Co-offending network patterns and offense type distributions vary for each sub-organization, indicating potential differences in organizational dynamics. Red & White Crew has features that are more similar to street gangs than OMCs, and Red Devils MC has a more decentralized and chapter-based pattern of criminal collabora- tion than Hells Angels MC. Besides increasing our understanding of OMC collaboration structure, our results have implications for crime prevention strat- egies. We suggest that social responses and law enforcement efforts should take into account the heterogeneity of OMCs in order to avoid counterproductive consequences in terms of increased
