Gang presence this weekend

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

International members of the Mongols MC are expected in Canterbury for an event marking five years since the gang established itself in New Zealand.

What you need to know:
-The gang has three chapters in the South Island. Wainoni-based ลŒtautahi East, Ashburton-based Mid-South and SH1, Burnham.
- Police say they will have โ€˜considerable resourceโ€™ in the region during the event from November 7-10.
- Police in Canterbury have planned a major operation around the event - thought to coincide with a national meeting - from November 7 to 10, and have drafted in staff from two other districts to help.
- Mongols members from across the country are expected to meet at the gangโ€™s original South Island headquarters - a fortified property on SH1, Burnham, on the outskirts of Christchurch.
- Canterbury district commander Superintendent Tony Hill says:
โ€œWeโ€™re prepared for multiple contingencies. We will be monitoring their behaviour very closely over the period, if theyโ€™re not behaving appropriately then we will be taking appropriate action quite swiftly.โ€
