Underbelly: The Gangland War (Underbelly #12) by John Silvester The Melbourne gangland killings were the murders of Underbelly: The Gangland War criminal underworld figures in Melbourne between January and August The murders were in a series of retributive killings involving various underworld groups. The deaths caused a sustained power vacuum within Melbourne's criminal community, as various factions fought for control and influence. Many of the murders remain unsolved, although detectives from the Purana Taskforce believe that Carl Williams was responsible for at least 10 of them. Since the confession of Williams, the ultimate source of the violence has become public knowledge. On his 29th birthday, while meeting with Jason Moran and his half brother Mark Moran on 13 October at a suburban park in Gladstone ParkJason Moran shot Carl Williams in the stomach over a dispute about money relating to their amphetamine trade. The murder of former lawyer Mario Condello on 6 February caused speculation of a possible resurgence in the killings, although this was denied by police. The majority of underworld crime figures and major incidents can be traced back to the Painters and Dockers Union that existed on Melbourne's waterfront after the Second World War. The Union had a Mafia -like structure, and most criminal activity was centred around control of the Union, and the cut associated with the drugs primarily heroin and cocaine that passed through the port. The Melbourne Markets were seen as a natural distribution point for these illegal substances they were just across the road from the docks area. By the local manufacture of amphetamines had increased to the point where the police described Melbourne as the " amphetamine capital of Australia ". The genesis of the underworld conflict can be traced to the arrest of John Underbelly: The Gangland War Samuel Higgsthen Australia's number one trafficker of amphetamines. Higgs was a well-connected criminal with a wide network of contacts both in the underworld and among corrupt police, and it took several years in one of the country's most expensive criminal investigations to finally convict him of drug trafficking charges.
