"Yesterday
the Hells Angel's met up with some law enforcements
top brass at Darwin SkyCity Hotel and Casino in
the most unusual of circumstances. I can't help
wondering whether they stopped in to sink a few
cold ones to watch Network Nine's finally Underbelly
screening of the season," says Greg Tingle
of MediaMan.com.au"
Over
2 million Aussie's enjoyed the explosive finale.
"Legend
has it that a couple of Australian bikie gangs
once re enacted a bike massacre that was in the
classic cult film by Gary Young 'Cosy Cool',"
says Tingle. "Sydney based producer of 'Brothers
At War' Richard Bradley, has been closely monitoring
the situation. It sounds like more episodes of
'Underbelly' are being written at the speed of
news. The thin blue line relationship continues
between Aussie bikers and legal top brass the
world over."
Actually
the bar event was a police conference about outlaw
biker issues, but nobody expected the Hells Angels
to actually attend. That's exactly what happened
according to the Sydney Morning Herald.
Within
hours of the senior police and their entourages
arriving at Darwin's hotel and casino complex,
SkyCity, Northern Territory police security realised
the commissioners were sharing a hotel floor with
two Hells Angels.
The
Hells Angels had not arrived to cause problems,
but for "rest, relaxation and a party",
a bikie source said.
From
the Sydney Morning Herald:
"NT
police security assessed the situation and gave
the two members the option to change their rooms,"
a NT police spokeswoman confirmed. "The two
members declined and chose to take accommodation
elsewhere."
In
one of the more humorous moments, the two Hells
Angels arrived to get on a commercial fishing
boat the day after the conference ended only to
find six police commissioners also planning a
spot of fishing.
"The
members were interrogated by police as to what
they were doing there - you know, assassination
plot or fishing plan," the bikie source said.
However,
he said the federal police commissioner, Mick
Keelty, "went into a hyper state" after
running into two Hells Angels in the foyer of
SkyCity.
A
spokesman for Mr Keelty said there was no "incident
or interaction whatsoever with the commissioner
and any bikies or bikie associates".
"We
do not support any of your source's views aside
from the fact that the commissioner was in attendance
at the conference," he said.
"To
report on anything other than this would not be
factual and something we would take a very dim
view of.''
