Organized Crime Infiltrates Australian Construction Industry
Organized crime groups are operating within sections of the New South Wales building industry. A biker gang in Melbourne is reportedly infiltrating the labor hire sector. The CEO of Hanson and Junkin, a major building company, recently faced threats including house firebombings. A Victorian police task force is currently targeting these criminal activities in Victoria and has made multiple arrests. The source noted that building companies should be held accountable for misbehavior, but current enforcement is insufficient.
