Killing police worth the risk, bikies warn Queensland police have been warned that members of the latest outlaw motorcycle gang to move onto the Gold Coast say they would rather kill police than be arrested and face the government's new laws. Do not make derogatory remarks ... advise the member if you intend to touch or search their colours. "A member of the Black Uhlans CMG [criminal motorcycle gang] was previously confirmed to have sought to obtain automatic firearms (M16 and AK47) on behalf of the Mongols and Finks CMG," the "Officer Safety Bolo" [Be on the Lookout] alert reads. It went on to say that the escalating violence was said to be a result of legislation which meant automatic custodial sentences of up to 15 years. "The Mongols are said to believe killing a police officer to evade arrest is worth the risk to escape the lengthy custodial sentence," the alert said. The state's police union has called on Police Commissioner Ian Stewart to urgently approve protective body armour for officers following the new threats but have yet to receive a response. Queensland Police Union president Ian Leavers said the union had made the initial request two weeks ago and he had written to the commissioner again on Friday morning. The Mongols bikie gang started in Australia on the NSW Central Coast two years ago with only about a dozen members in a handful of chapters until they took over of the Finks gang last month. While most members are in Queensland, there are about 70 Mongols in NSW, with chapters on the north shore and Blacktown. The police alert also says the threats are non-specific and do not target any specific officers. It includes guidelines about how best to deal with outlaw criminal motorcycle gangs, such as, "do not make derogatory remarks about the CMG or its members" and "advise the member if you intend to touch or search their colours." Police have refused to elaborate on the intelligence, saying the "unconfirmed information was the subject of investigation." "All information that relates to officer safety is communicated in a timely manner," police said in a statement. The QPS regularly advises officers to be aware of and to take steps to ensure, their personal security at all times. For operational reasons it would be inappropriate to comment further. The weapons are available to specialist units and police in isolated areas but the high-powered guns have not been allocated in the south-east region. Meanwhile Mr Stewart said he was considering the requests but was cautious about making the police appear too threatening. The Mongols, which are southern California-based, are understood to have brokered a deal with the Finks, whereby Finks members "patched over" to join to a new "mega club." It has been reported up to 90 per cent of the Finks' members could "patch over" to circumvent moves by authorities to have the Finks declared a criminal organisation. It is believed the club's expansion to the Gold Coast was negotiated by a Mongol member from the French chapter who also has ties with Germany. The Mongols have chapters in Sydney's north shore, the central coast, Melbourne, Perth, and Adelaide.
