Fears missing bikie has been killed

New South Wales police have begun an investigation into the disappearance of a senior bikie gang member who officers fear has been killed.

Neil Green, 36, is the sergeant at arms of the Riverstone chapter of the Nomads Outlaw Motorcycle Gang in Sydney.

Police say he was last seen in mid-April when he and another man drove to a property at Girraween in the city's west.

Witnesses have told police they heard an argument as well as a number of gunshots in the area at the time.

The gang's squad Commander Mal Lanyon says police believe Mr Green might have been killed, but that the motive is still subject to investigation.

"At this stage there is no evidence to suggest that Mr Green's disappearance is a result of conflict between the outlaw motorcycle gangs," he said.

"We continue to look at the reasons for his disappearance."

Five guns and a large amount of forensic material were found at the property during crime scene investigations.

Police from the state's gang squad are calling for public assistance with the man's disappearance.

"We've spoken to a number of surrounding premises," said Commander Lanyon.

"We certainly believe that a number of people may have information in relation to Mr Green, could have known about his movements on that day and may well have further information.

"Obviously people often hear various things and that's what we're keen to hear from members of the public who may have been told something."

 

Killing of top Sydney bikie: three charged

 

A man has been charged with the murder of a senior Nomads bikie who vanished several months ago, police say.

Neil Green, 36, sergeant-at-arms of the Riverstone chapter of the Nomads, was last seen at premises in Wiltona Place, Girraween, in April.

He and another man drove to the address where police later found five firearms which have since been forensically analysed.

A witness also reported hearing a verbal argument and a number of gunshots on the day he was there.

Detectives were treating the disappearance as suspicious, believing Mr Green "met with foul play", police said today.

A breakthrough in the investigation by Strike Force Devine came today when three men - aged 24, 32 and 59 - were arrested at two locations in Sydney's west.

A unit at Rhodes and an industrial building at Girraween were searched and charges were laid against each of the men.

The 32-year-old was charged with murdering Mr Green and shooting with intent to murder his companion. He was refused bail and will appear at Burwood Local Court today.

The 59-year-old was charged with being an accessory after the fact to murder and an accessory after the fact to attempted murder, and was also refused bail to appear in Blacktown Court.

The 24-year-old man was charged with concealing an indictable offence and was bailed to appear at Burwood Local Court in December.

Strike Force Devine launched its investigation in May after Mr Green's disappearance.

 

Sydney shooting scene 'like a cowboy movie'

Wednesday, 29 August 2012 Otago Times

The sound of gunshots, a man lying on concrete and another leaping over a fence.

Businessman Victor Gilbert, giving evidence at the trial of Kevin Anthony Gall and his father, Bruce Edward Gall, in the Supreme Court in Sydney, said the scene prompted him to ask his neighbour if he was making a cowboy movie.

Kevin Gall, 34, is accused of murdering senior Nomads bikie Neil Green, 36, who vanished on April 16, 2010.

Gall's 61-year-old father Bruce is accused of being an accessory after the fact to murder.

Mr Gilbert, whose factory is adjacent to Bruce Gall's property in Girraween, in Sydney's west, told the court he heard gunshots from next door on the day Mr Green disappeared.

"I rang up Bruce and said, `Are you making a cowboy movie or something?'," he told the court.

Kevin Gall is also accused of shooting with intent to kill Michael Fox, a former soldier who went to the property with Mr Green, and Bruce Gall charged with being an accessory after the fact.

Mr Green's body has never been recovered.

Mr Gilbert's employee Irene Schenscher said she heard the words "get on the ground" before about four to five gunshots rang out.

She said Bruce Gall "appeared to be hosing down the cement" after the shooting.

The court also heard from Garth Thomas Jones, a friend of Mr Green, who was recently sentenced to a suspended 12-month jail term for trying to burn down Bruce Gall's property.

Mr Jones said he wanted his mate's body back.

"They know where it is," he said, referring to Gall and his father.

Mr Jones told the court Mr Green and Kevin Gall had once been good friends but had fallen out over drug charges against Mr Green.

Earlier Mr Fox told the court he went with Mr Green to Bruce Gall's property to collect a sum of $2.5 million from his son.

The younger Gall fired shots, knocking Green to the ground, while Mr Fox escaped.

"I must have been kissed on the dick by an angel on that day," he said.

Mr Fox said he went to the premises unarmed to sort out a peaceful solution because he had trained in hostage negotiations.

But defence barrister for Bruce Gall, Bruce Levitt, said Mr Fox had gone with Mr Green as his "hired muscle".

"If he wanted muscle he would have used the Nomads," Mr Fox told the court.

"You're a person who intimidates, aren't you?" he asked Mr Fox, alleging that he had been hired by the Nomads to intimidate others.

The trial before Justice Christine Adamson continues.

 

Dramatic scenes in bikie court case

Nine NEws
A Sydney murder trial witness has angrily denied he is intimidated by the presence of Nomads bikie gang members in court, telling a barrister, "I feel like bashing you".
In dramatic scenes in the NSW Supreme Court on Monday, defence barrister Bruce Levet identified some men in the public gallery as Nomads members to witness Martin Lapich.
"You're more scared of the Nomads than you are of the police, aren't you?" Mr Levet said to Mr Lapich.
 
"You're too scared to give evidence in accordance with your statement (to police) because you're worried something is going to happen to you.
"You can't even bring yourself to look at them, can you?"
Mr Lapich angrily denied this was the case, labelling the claims "bulls**t".
"I feel like bashing you, but that's not going to happen," he said to another barrister, Matthew Johnston.
 
Mr Lapich was giving evidence in the trial of Kevin Gall, 34, and his 61-year-old father, Bruce Gall.
Kevin Gall is accused of murdering senior Nomads bikie Neil Green, 36, who vanished on April 16, 2010, and whose body has never been found.
He is also accused of shooting with intent to kill Michael Fox, a former soldier who went to Bruce Gall's Girraween property in western Sydney with Mr Green.
Bruce Gall is accused of being an accessory after the fact of murder and after the fact of attempted murder.
Both men have pleaded not guilty.
The court has heard Mr Green and Mr Fox went to the Girraween property to collect $2.5 million from Kevin Gall.
The younger Gall allegedly fired shots, knocking Mr Green to the ground, while Mr Fox escaped.
Mr Lapich told the court he was at the Girraween property that day to discuss business with Kevin Gall when Mr Green, a close friend of his, and another man he didn't know arrived.
Mr Lapich became increasingly angry while giving evidence, at one point saying, "It's all a f***ing farce."
He said police had forced him to sign a statement of interview and he said he couldn't remember much of what happened that day.
Mr Lapich denied hearing Mr Green or his companion say to Bruce Gall, "Where the f*** is your son? ... I want the c*** here now".
He also denied he sent Kevin Gall a text message saying, "don't come, Neil here" or that he then asked Mr Green not to harm "the old bloke".
He further denied later expressing fears that he would be bashed by Nomads bikies who would hold him responsible for Mr Green's death if they knew he had alerted Kevin Gall.
"You're busting my balls here," he told Mr Johnston, Kevin Gall's barrister, whom he later called a "f***ing wanker".
Mr Lapich also crumpled up his police statement and at one point refused to carry on for several minutes.
"You're being intimidated by Nomads," Mr Levet, Bruce Gall's defence barrister, said.
"I'm being intimidated by you," Mr Lapich replied.
The trial continues before Justice Christine Adamson.
