(AUS) Bandidos bikie club national president to remain behind bars

THE National president of the Bandidos Outlaw Motorcycle Club, Jason Murray Addison, will remain behind bars after being refused bail in the Maroochydore Magistrates Court this morning.

Mr Addison appeared on fraud and extortion charges.

The court heard a former Bandidos member had allegedly been threatened by Mr Addison and forced to sign over his stone masonry business, worth about $200,000 in 2011, to the Bandidos president, as punishment for attending a 2010 Crime Commission.

EARLIER:

Police prosecutor Senior Sergeant David Bradley told the court last week police were concerned that if released on bail, Mr Addison could intimidate key witnesses, including a former Bandidos member who brought the extortion case against the accused, or flee the country.

"There is a real risk of the applicant (Mr Addison) using his authority as national president to interfere with witnesses," Snr Sgt Bradley said.

Snr Sgt Bradley said police were ramping up the charges against Mr Addison, meaning the accused faced life imprisonment if found guilty. Barrister Tony Glynn QC appearing for Mr Addison, said his client's association with the Bandidos should hold little weight in his application for bail.

"There is nothing in his personal history which would support anything that shows risk (of re-offending, flight or failing to appear)," he said. "If Your Honour refuses him bail he will spend substantially longer in prison than he is likely to face by way of penalty."

Mag Madsen, in a lighter moment of the intense application, said he had refused bail for bikies in the past, but been overruled in Court of Appeal decisions.

The court heard the former Bandidos member had allegedly been threatened by Mr Addison and forced to sign over his stone masonry business, worth about $200,000 in 2011, to the Bandidos president, as punishment for attending a 2010 Crime Commission.

The alleged victim, who was booted from the Bandidos for attending the Crime Commission, was the godfather of one of Mr Addison's children, Snr Sgt Bradley said as he reinforced the need to protect the alleged victims.

"They are in every way whistleblowers on the conduct of this organisation (Bandidos)," Snr Sgt Bradley said.

(AUS) Cocaine, ecstacy seized in Gold Coast raid

Police have arrested a member of the Hells Angels after allegedly finding up to $1 million worth of drugs at his Gold Coast hinterland home.

Officers who raided the Reedy Creek address about 7am on Friday allegedly found 1kg of methamphetamine or ice, 1kg of cannabis, more than 3000 ecstasy pills and two guns.

Detective Inspector Brendan Smith said police had acted on a tip-off.

'The drugs are valued at anywhere between $800,000 to $1 million on the street,' he told AAP.

'The operation has removed probably 14,000 drug hits from the street.'

The guns seized were a pistol-grip shotgun and a handgun.

Det Insp Smith said a 26-year-old patched Hells Angels gang member was in custody and had been charged with drugs and weapons offences.

The man is expected to front Southport Magistrates Court on Saturday.

(USA) Doubt cast on evidence for charges

LAKEPORT >> Defense attorneys each provided their comments on a number of points in the prosecution's case against three Sonoma Chapter Hells Angels members, while the people's attorney's final closing argument provoked some contention in the courtroom Friday.

Most central to the arguments was their contention of a lack of evidence to prove their clients' guilt in each charge levied against them. But they also each dabbled in calling gang expert Jorge Gil-Blanco's credibility into question and calling the jury's attention to some speculative reasons why the prosecution hadn't presented more evidence.

Like any defense attorney might argue, the concept of having to prove the defendants' guilt beyond a reasonable doubt was highly stressed. And when held up to the standard of proof required by law to convict someone of such charges, clips of blurry security video footage without audio and testimony from a biased member of law enforcement claiming to be an expert of the motorcycle club wouldn't cut it, the attorneys argued.

The first count for each defendant, charging them with assisting in felonious criminal conduct as members of a gang, can only be found true if the jury is able to determine the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club constitutes a criminal street gang. Defense attorney Michael Clough told the jury the only evidence provided to them that showed the Hells Angels were a gang came from Gil-Blanco, whose lack of qualifications were also poked at by each defense attorney.

Aside from Gil-Blanco's testimony, however, the jury is presented with predicate convictions for other Hells Angels members mostly from the club's Ventura chapter. To charge the defendants with assisting their so-called gang with felonious conduct, the jury will have to find such felonious conduct is a primary activity of the club.

Attorney Jai Gohel argued that he wasn't trying to prove all Hells Angels members were innocent or that the jurors should want their sons to be one, but that didn't mean the Hells Angels as a club spent its time committing such crimes.

A charge specific to defendant Timothy Bianchi (who threw the first punch of the fight) is that of using force likely to inflict great bodily injury. But Gohel cast doubt on the jury's ability to find his client guilty of the charge as the video footage of the fight shows Bianchi taking a swing at Vagos member Michael Burns but never making contact with Burns. Gohel also asked if Burns' injuries — a possible broken nose and a cut on his lip — constituted great bodily injury.

On the other hand, charges specific to defendants Nicolas Carrillo and Josh Johnson require an even heavier burden of proof. Attorneys Patrick Ciocca and Michael Clough pointed out their felony charges of aiding and abetting a criminal street gang could only be found true if defendants Josh Johnson and Nicolas Carrillo were also found to be guilty of aiding and abetting a felony assault.

In order to show guilt of that, however, the jury would also have to have been presented evidence of the two Hells Angels members' intent to aid Bianchi in his alleged crimes. The defense contests evidence of their intent could perhaps be speculated upon by District Attorney Deputy Art Grothe, but couldn't be proved with the available evidence.

The defense also asked the jury why the prosecution hadn't been able to gather more evidence. The sheriff's office could have pressed charges against the three defendants a week after the incident and before the rest of the casino's video footage was cleared, they argued.

Instead, the department waited two months before pressing charges and the only visual evidence of the alleged crimes came from law enforcement's sampling of camera footage. Other witnesses who saw the casino fight were not interviewed, much less called to the stand to testify about what they saw, the defense pointed out.

"You can't draw any inferences because the evidence simply isn't there," Clough said. "That's a serious problem and it's of the prosecution's making."

They also asked the jury why more evidence of a historical rivalry between the Hells Angels and Vagos in Lake County hadn't been produced. The prosecution's evidence of a rivalry rested on a few non-confrontations between Burns and supposedly some Hells Angels members but at least two of the incidents, including the casino fight, seemed to show Burns as the instigator.

Grothe's final words, to which the defense didn't have an opportunity to negate in front of the jury, caused some trouble after the jury was dismissed. Based on Grothe's alleged misrepresentation of what Clough considered significant issues in the case, Clough said he would be moving for a mistrial if the errors weren't pointed out to the jury.

Grothe's closing argument mostly constituted a response to the defense counsel's allegations against his case.

He responded to the defense's allegation that Gil-Blanco's list of 50 violent instances between the Hells Angels and other motorcycle clubs didn't accurately represent the reality of those instances.

The defense had cross-examined Gil-Blanco about his list, which didn't include names or other relevant details, and found multiple instances on the list were inaccurately depicted and didn't actually result in convictions for Hells Angels members.

"This is not a mini-trial on each of those instances. If we had two years, yes, we could bring in witnesses and police reports but that's not the purpose of this trial," Grothe argued.

He also responded to the idea that video hadn't been collected from the casino that could have assisted in the case.

"There are not some magical segments of tape out there," he said. "That's what some people will do to try and muddy the waters."

Grothe's claim that one of the predicates presented to the jury but later redacted for its inaccuracy was the fault of himself, Gil-Blanco and the defense council drew heated criticism outside the presence of the jury.

Clough argued it was not their mistake in any way that the inaccurate information was presented by Gil-Blanco and asked the jury be informed of the error in Grothe's statement that it was.

The jury received partial instructions that guided them in their consideration of the charges. Deliberations begin Wednesday and the jury is anticipated to give its verdict shortly.

(USA) She's dating a Hell's Angel? The boyfriend Shanna Moakler 'threatened would beat up ex Travis Barker' is revealed to be in a biker gxxg

In December Travis Barker allegedly claimed his ex-wife Shanna Moakler threatened to have her new boyfriend 'beat him up' following their arrest in LA for threatening to kill each other.

And on Thursday TMZ revealed what that boyfriend does in his spare time.

The site claimed her love interest, who has yet to be named, is in the biker gang Hell's Angels.

e is the the club's San Fernando Valley Chapter, it was claimed.

On Monday the former Playboy model posted a photo of herself with a man who could be the boyfriend. In the caption she wrote, 'U know he loves u when he sits through a 3 hour show for U... ❤️ you @tallblock_sfv.'

The link to @tallblock_sfv is blocked so the beau cannot be identified.

According to the site's source, 'Shanna believes Barker will try to use her boyfriend's Angel ties against her in their custody battle.'

But the site adds that 'Shanna is insisting he's a nonviolent pussy cat with no rap sheet.'

Barker and Moakler - who have two children together - were both arrested in Los Angeles before the holidays for threatening to kill each other, TMZ reported. The arrest only became known after paper work was released in January.

Travis claimed Shanna threatened to have her boyfriend beat him up.

That is after Shanna told police that he said, 'If I could I'd put a bullet in your head.'

The exes live under the same roof, it was reported.

Travis and Shanna - who were married from 2004 to 2008 - were 'handcuffed and thrown in the back of squad cars for making criminal threats against each other on December 7,' the site claimed.

First the singer threatened to kill her then the blonde model did the same back, it was alleged. They are both 39-years-old.

TMZ claimed Barker of Blink- 182 'got in a verbal fight over a reality show Travis wants to do with their two kids.'

The family already starred together in the reality show Meet The Barkers from 2005 to 2006.

The site, which has seen the arrest documents, said the musician was quoted as saying, 'If I could, I'd put a bullet in your head.'

Moakler called police that came to their LA home, it was added.

After fighting some more in front of the officers, they were handcuffed and 'taken to the station,' the site noted.

The former Playboy model said that they have not been getting along and he regularly calls her a 'b****.'

She maintained that he also called her 'a "f***ing piece of garbage' and has said she is 'a cigarette smoking, coke-snorting bitch."

The former beauty queen also has an email in which he said, 'My poor kids have a wh*** for a mom.'

Sources told TMZ charges will not be filed against either one but The LA County Department Of Children And Family Services 'was contacted and they are investigating,' TMZ added.

Together they have daughter Alabama Luella and son Landon Asher.

Shanna also has a daughter with her ex, boxer Oscar de la Hoya. Her name is Atiana Cecilia.

On Thursday the former reality star posted a sultry selfie to Instgram with the caption, 'Bored so I've been playing with make up.'

On Wednesday she shared a note about surviving using 'courage, humor and grace.'

(USA) 8 indicted in Denver-area meth ring

Eight people, including several believed to be high-ranking members of a motorcycle gang, have been indicted on accusations they operated a drug trafficking ring in the Denver area.

The indictments were announced Wednesday by the Colorado Attorney General's Office and follow a nearly five-month- long investigation, code-named "Operation Tick and Flea Collar."

The operation targeted a group accused of violating the Colorado Organized Crime and Control Act because of their alleged involvement in trafficking "large quantities" of methamphetamine, firearm possession violations, money laundering and conspiracy, the office said.

Those indicted include Philip Lee Duran, 40, Lorenzo Leuis Sojo, 39, and Michael Derek Mensen, 45, the purported leaders of the trafficking operation.

Duran remained at-large on Wednesday until he was taken into custody during a traffic stop in Arvada, the office said.

"Under Duran's leadership, this group sourced its drug supply from a variety of wholesale distributors and then sold them throughout the Denver-metro area," Attorney General Cynthia Coffman said in a statement. "Law enforcement agencies across Colorado again coordinated to interrupt a drug-trafficking operation run by the Bandidos Motorcycle Club, which is well known for its use of violence and intimidation."

Authorities say they seized more than two-and-a-half pounds of methamphetamine worth roughly $40,000 as part of the sting.

The Metro Gang Task Force, the FBI and the Drug Enforcement Administration were all part of the investigation.

(CAN) Infamous Hamilton Hells Angel Stadnick out of jail

One of Hells Angels' most influential leaders, Walter Stadnick of Hamilton, is now back on the streets.

Stadnick's parole records show that he was released a week before Christmas, after having his parole revoked midway through 2014. The parole decision does not say where he now lives, although it states that his community supports are his common-law wife, mother-in-law and mother.

Stadnick was sentenced in September 2004 to 20 years (reduced to 14 years, seven months for previous time served) for convictions including conspiracy to commit murder, conspiracy to traffic drugs and involvement in gang activities. He was paroled in June 2014, but was back in jail less than a month later, after concerns were raised that he was associating again with people with a criminal record.

He was able to convince the board to reinstate his freedom in December 2014. He will have unrestricted freedom beginning April 12, 2019.

Stadnick's parole file shows he was polite and respectful to guards, but that he continued to break the law.

While in custody in the Kingston area, he was transferred from medium to maximum security prisons in 2006 and 2009 "for illegal trafficking activities and large-scale loansharking within the institution."

He also showed no inclination to change his ways, his parole file states.

"You are resistant to opening up to your case management team (CMT) and are noted as not willing to discuss your crimes or your association," his file states.

"You have never expressed any remorse for your actions," it continues, adding he has been a member of the Hells Angels since 1982 and helped found the elite Nomads chapter in Montreal in 1995.

"As a founding member of the Nomads, you are among the leaders of the Hells Angels organization," his parole file states.

His parole conditions included orders to avoid people in motorcycle and street gangs, including "any person known to be a hang around or wannabe of any outlaw motorcycle gang."

He is also barred from owning more than one cellphone and must show his parole officers detailed billing statements for it, including documentation of whom he texts and emails and what social media sites he visits.

He also can't consume alcohol or go to bars or own or operate a motorcycle or work in motorcycle repairs.

His parole file shows he only lasted a few weeks in a halfway house after being paroled last June before he was taken back into custody.

Corrections officials balked at how he continued to associate with a biker gang member with a criminal record.

He also objected to a curfew that continues between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.

"You are arguing that you have less freedom with the imposition of a curfew at 9:00 than when incarcerated," his file states.

Stadnick was arrested in the massive 2001 Sûreté du Québec Printemps police operation, aimed at ending gang war between the Hells Angels Montreal Nomads chapter and the Rock Machine, and at stopping the Nomads' expansion.

The war between the Hells Angels and Rock Machine cost at least 150 lives, including innocent victims.

(USA) 75th Sturgis Rally expected to draw a big crowd; why?

he 75th Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is coming, and agencies up and down the Black Hills are preparing for a huge crowd.

Sturgis Police Chief Jim Bush says he's been to several meetings already on the local and state level to prepare for 2015's rally. And it's not just law enforcement. Bush says everyone is getting rally ready, including ambulance crews, fire departments, courts and jails.

One reason for the influx this year? Age.

Bush says a year or two ago, a study was done on the average age of the biker, which was settled at around 50 years old. "Anniversaries tend to draw more people usually, and if that's the case, the average biker is 50, this is probably the anniversary they're going to attend if they're going to attend one," said Bush. "I think that fact alone may drive a lot of people."

Bush says other anniversary years have drawn larger crowds than usual.

(USA) Case against Devils Diciples to go to federal jury

A federal jury is expected to start deliberating the fate of seven members of a Mount Clemens-based motorcycle club Monday following a more than three-month trial over racketeering and drug conspiracies and other allegations.

The jury likely will get the case Monday afternoon following a total of about 20 hours of closing arguments that began Tuesday in front of Judge Robert Cleland in U.S. District Court in Detroit.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Saima Mohsin is expected to complete her rebuttal after defense attorneys argued their cases Thursday and Friday in response to the myriad of accusations surrounding the operation of the Devils Diciples Motorcycle Club, called the “Mount Clemens club,” located on Gratiot Avenue south of Hall Road.

The prosecution team, including Assistant Attorney Eric Straus, say all seven defendants were part of a conspiracy to operate and maintain a criminal enterprise over nearly 20 years and to manufacture, possess and sell at least 500 grams of methamphetamine, Vicodin and marijuana.

Five of the defendants each face one or more additional charges.

Forty-one people from Michigan and other states were indicted by a grand jury in June 2012 following a 10-year investigation by the FBI, led by Agent Bill Fleming and others. Many of those were among the 22 former and would-be members who testified against the defendants in exchange for leniency in their criminal cases and in some cases compensation.

Defense attorneys disputed the existence of an enterprise, contending the Devils Diciples was a social club and members and chapters acted on their own, and each defendant should be individually considered.

The defense also attacked the use and credibility of former members and would-be members who benefitted from testifying, calling them liars.

Chapters operated in several states, with southeast Michigan chapters also located in Utica, Ira or Chesterfield townships, the west side of Detroit and Port Huron.

On trial are club president Jeff “Fat Dog” Garvin Smith, 60, of Mount Clemens; vice president Paul “Pauli” Darrah, 50, of Macomb Township; Cary “Gun Control” Vandiver, 55, of Mount Clemens; Vincent “Holiday” Witort of California; Patrick Michael “Magoo” McKeoun of Alabama; Scott “Scotty Z” Sutherland; and David Randy “D” Drozdowski.

During closing arguments U.S. attorneys displayed the 15 long guns and handguns in court that were confiscated during the investigation.

The racketeering conspiracy is alleged under the federal Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations law.

Evidence to back the racketeering conspiracy included two murder incidents committed by club members that involved three victims in Michigan and Indiana, the attempted murder of five of its own members by other members in Arizona, trafficking in controlled substances, attempts to elude federal agents, and theft of motorcycles and transportation of the stolen bikes across state lines, among others.

Fifteen illegal slot machines were confiscated from the clubhouses and members’ homes.

Smith, Darrah and Vandiver also face charges of conspiracy to conduct an illegal gambling business, assault with intent to aid racketeering activity and four counts of obstruction of justice, two involving witness tampering and two involving subornation of perjury.

Smith is also charged with another count of attempted assault in aid of racketeering.

Vandiver faces three counts and Darrah faces one count of distribution of meth.

McKeoun is charged with two counts of manufacture or distribution of meth.

Drozdowski faces a count of assault with intent to aid racketeering activity and being a felon in possession of a firearm.

(CAN) Saskatoon Hells Angel Rob Allen makes bail on drug charges

The lone Saskatoon Hells Angel arrested in last week's sweeping raids across Saskatchewan and Alberta is out on bail.

Robert Allen is charged with two counts of trafficking and one count of assault.

Allen made bail by posting $5,000 and surrendering his passport. He also agreed to a wide range of conditions, similar to those imposed on other accused in the case.

They include staying away from the clubhouses of the Fallen Saints and Hells Angels motorcycle clubs; having no contact with 19 named individuals; not having many contact with any Fallen Saints or Hells Angels members; and submitting to warrantless searches on demand.

'Admit nothing, dispute nothing'

Allen's lawyer, Morris Bodnar, was able to get a curfew condition adjusted to allow him to get to and from the Agrium potash mine near Vanscoy, where Allen works.

Bodnar is a long-time lawyer for the Hells Angels. When reached the day of the arrests, he confirmed that one of the local Angels, Rob Allen, had been arrested.

But now Bodnar will not acknowledge that Allen is a member of the motorcycle club.

However, according to Allen's Facebook page, he identifies himself as a "Soldier at HAMC," the acronym for Hells Angels Motorcycle Club.

Bodnar did not know about any possible criminal organization charges against any of the accused.

Allen's next court date is in February.

(AUS) Former SA bikie and son accused of assault

A trial resumes in Adelaide today for Former bikie Vince Focarelli and his son, who are accused of assaulting a man prosecutors say is too scared to testify.

40-year-old Focarelli and his 19-year-old sone Giuseppe have pleaded not guilty to the aggravated assault of the man in the Adelaide Hills two years ago.

Yesterday the court heard the father and son had been engaged in a high-speed car chase with the alleged victim, before he was bashed by Focarelli jnr while his father aided and abetted the assault.

(AUS) Mongol bikie enforcer Shane Bowden charged with South Yarra home invasion

A high-profile bikie enforcer was arrested in Melbourne hiding behind a tree following a stabbing during a South Yarra home invasion involving camouflage-clad offenders, police say.

Mongols motorcycle gang's national sergeant-at-arms Shane Scott Bowden, 42, and his co-accused Aysen Unlu, 39, were remanded on Tuesday night to face the Melbourne Magistrates Court on Wednesday on charges that included aggravated burglary, intentionally cause injury and theft.

Detective Senior Constable Chris Pountney told an out-of-sessions hearing at the St Kilda Police Station on Tuesday night that a man and woman woke at 4am that day to find a figure clad in full camouflage clothing standing at the end of their bed, holding a knife and demanding cash.

He said the woman screamed, prompting another man living in the Davis Avenue home in South Yarra to come to their aid, along with another camouflage-clad offender.

A scuffle ensued where both the alleged offenders and victims punched each other. The two male victims were then stabbed in the hands before the female victim grabbed the knife and threw it into the yard.

One of the victims handed over between $500 and $700 before Mr Bowden and Ms Unlu left out the back door and police were called, Senior Constable Pountney alleged.

He said police found Mr Bowden and Ms Unlu a short time later hiding behind a tree on the corner of Alexandra Avenue and Yarra Street.

Police found camouflage booties, night vision googles, a hunting knife and other items in preliminary searches.

Senior Constable Pountney told bail justice Annette Stockman that Mr Bowden posed an unacceptable risk given he was a patched member of the Mongols and the club's national enforcer.

"We've got fears for the safety and welfare of the victims if he's granted bail," he said.

Mr Bowden said he had only been in Victoria for 12 months and it was his "first brush with the law" in the state.

Asked why the Nott Street apartment in Port Melbourne he was living in with the female accomplice was half-empty, he told Ms Stockman he had just come back from boxing training in Bali.

"I just got back from overseas training for a fight," Mr Bowden said.

Ms Stockman remanded Mr Bowden to face court tomorrow, "in view of the seriousness of what has occurred today", she said.

Ms Unlu was also remanded in a later out-of-sessions hearing at St Kilda Police Station.

One of the male victims is still in hospital with suspected severed tendons in his hand.

The other male victim received a small laceration.

(USA) Poking holes in perspectives at Hells Angel trail

LAKEPORT >> While the prosecution has been attempting to prove the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club's history of violence, the defense counsel has been just as busy trying to poke holes in the district attorney deputy's evidence as the trial resumed following a holiday break.

The trial stems from a June 2011 fight between members of the Hells Angels and Vagos Motorcycle Club at Konocti Vista Casino. There were no serious injuries from the brief affair.

Gang enhancement charges were applied the three defendants. The prosecution hopes the jury will find the three defendants guilty of aiding and abetting a criminal street gang, but the defense contends the club is not a gang and should not receive such enhancement charges.

Although former sheriff Frank Rivero was slotted to testify Wednesday, his appearance has been moved to next week as gang expert Jorge Gil-Blanco's questioning took up all three trial days.

A majority of District Attorney Deputy Art Grothe's questioning of Gil-Blanco revolved around a list of about 40 acts of violence that have allegedly involved Hells Angels members. Most of the altercations occurred within the last decade and involved members of the Ventura Chapter of the club, but also included incidents that took place in other states.

Gil-Blanco, who has worked on or assisted in investigations concerning the Hells Angels since 1980, had complied the list over the years. In addition, he has provided expert testimony in about 40 cases, he said.

Grothe and Gil-Blanco also walked the jury through a couple dozen predicate offenses of various Hells Angels members, many of which included the sale of methamphetamine.

During the defense's cross-examination of Gil-Blanco, efforts to call into question Gil-Blanco's credentials, as well as credibility, consumed an equal amount of time.

Attorney Jai Gohel brought up a number of the cases listed in Gil-Blanco's projected PDF to show no convictions had actually resulted in many of the incidents he included.

An attorney who has represented multiple Hells Angels members at trail in the past, Gohel said he's cross-examined Gil-Blanco in at least four different cases. Indeed, the two quickly appeared frustrated with each other's approach to questions and answers.

Gil-Blanco's responses fell into a pattern of dismissing Gohel's questions with his inability to recall details he might have otherwise been expected to as a Hells Angels expert, such as what the club's membership card looked like.

The counsel also attacked Gil-Blanco's lack of formal training; his only degree is an associates in photography. Otherwise, his experience has been gathered from working with law enforcement.

The rest of their questioning sought to show Hells Angels members partaking in normal and nonthreatening practices and philosophies, such as referring to one another as brothers, sending each other plaques to commemorate members on their anniversary with the club and donating to charities.

(CAN) Police say they arrested president of Bacchus gang’s Halifax chapter

A man referred to by police as the president of the Bacchus motorcycle gang’s Halifax chapter has been charged after an arrest at the chapter’s Old Sambro Road headquarters last Thursday.

Halifax Regional Police’s emergency response team arrested Derreck Dean Huggan, 49, at 770 Old Sambro Rd. at 6:10 a.m. Thursday. Officers were called about an hour earlier to an assault in progress at a Bently Drive address, and their investigation took them to the Bacchus building.

Huggan was arrested without incident and police allegedly seized marijuana, cocaine and ecstasy from Huggan’s vehicle. A subsequent search at another property turned up some ammunition, police said.

He has been charged with assault, uttering threats, theft, possession of stolen property, drug possession and possession of ammunition contrary to a parole-related prohibition order.

Huggan was arraigned on Friday and then released from custody.

He is due to return for election and plea on Feb. 3 and is under strict conditions until then. Huggan has been ordered to abstain from alcohol and drugs and must reside, except in approved cases, at a residence on Waterwheel Crescent in Lower Sackville.

Huggan can’t possess weapons and must keep the peace. He can’t have direct or indirect contact or communication with Jessica Gillian, Tim Gilby or Lise Marsh.

In an interview this May, RCMP Const. Cindy Cullen of the combined forces intelligence unit, said the force believed Huggan was president of the 12-member Bacchus chapter.

Huggan has been before the courts before.

In April 2000, Tantallon RCMP charged him in connection to the seizure of 3.5 kilograms of hashish, 659 grams of marijuana, a small amount of crack cocaine and a handgun.

He was one of 18 people arrested in a November 2006 trafficking investigation in Prince Edward Island.
