Comanchero national president to face Southport Magistrates court after arrest at Gold Coast Airport THE national president of the Comanchero motorcycle club was arrested at Gold Coast Airport last night. The man, who cannot be named until he has appeared in court, was arrested by detectives from Taskforce Maxima as he arrived with his wife and family for a holiday after being released from a NSW jail yesterday. He was wanted by police on a warrant for threatening a Queensland Police ­officer. The 29-year-old was arrested about 5pm as he and his family disembarked from a flight from Sydney. The well-known bikie is no stranger to the Gold Coast. The national ­office-bearer was in hiding at Hope Island in December 2012 before being arrested after a national manhunt. The charges are understood to relate to a threat allegedly made over that arrest. Detective Inspector Brendan Smith of Taskforce Maxima said: "This arrest and the ongoing conduct of gang leaders provides another example of unlawful activity carried by these Criminal Gangs and the threat they pose to community safety. The arrest sends a message to Gang members that unlawful actions will not be tolerated and enforcement action will be taken at every opportunity, regardless as to where they reside. He is expected to face Southport Magistrates Court Tuesday morning.
