Ken Sapwelll

Kings Forest developer Bob Ell has become embroiled in a police investigation into the gangland-style shooting last week of reputed stand-over man and accused arsonist, Michael McGurk. Mr McGurk’s murder has triggered sensa- tional claims of bribes involving state and fed- eral MPs which are now being investigated by the State’s corruption watchdog, the Independ- ent Commission Against Corruption. Mr Ell is not a suspect in the case but police are hoping that he and other McGurk associates can help identify people who may be motivated to organise what they suspect is a professional hit.
