Tasmania Police will be enforcing new laws banning the wearing of insignia of five outlaw motorcycle gangs from today.
The new legislation affects the following OMCGs: Rebels, Bandidos, Outlaws, Devils Henchmen and the Black Uhlans. These are criminal gangs and their colours are designed to show affiliation with this criminality and intimidate others. The new laws don’t affect any other motorcycle clubs.
Police have also been liaising with the Outlaws OMCG to ensure members understand that they'll be closely monitored, and that criminal and anti-social behaviour won’t be tolerated in our state at a planned run in northern Tasmania on Saturday.
Our community can be assured there’ll be a strong police presence actively monitoring the activities of outlaw motorcycle gang members while they're here.
This will include vehicle checks, targeted drug and alcohol testing, monitoring for anti-social and criminal behaviour and traffic operations.
Tasmania Police has rostered on a significant number of additional officers to assist with this operation and will be supported by a contingent of officers from interstate.
