On 29 May it will be clear whether the motorcycle club Hells Angels Holland will be banned. Then the Utrecht District Court will rule on the civil law case filed by the Public Prosecution Service.

The banning of the Angels, who established themselves as the first outlaw motorcycle gang (OMG) in the Netherlands in 1978, is a long cherished wish of justice. In the mid-nineties, reports were already received from members who were engaged in internationally organized crime, including drug trafficking.

The Hells Angels Daniel André Giroux Arrested in the Dominican Republic

The Hells Angels of the Montreal Chapter Daniel André Giroux, who had been wanted for 10 months by Quebec police, was arrested in the last few hours in the Dominican Republic, the Sûreté du Québec announced.

Giroux, whose name is on the list of the ten most wanted criminals in Quebec, has been on the run since Operation Objection in which the National Organized Crime Squad (ENRCO) dismantled four drug trafficking networks related to drug trafficking. Hells Angels in April 2018. Sixty people were arrested and Giroux is the last of them not to have settled his case in court yet.

He will appear tomorrow at the Montreal Courthouse and be charged with gangsterism, a conspiracy to smuggle cocaine, cocaine trafficking and methamphetamine trafficking.

No more holidays for a Hells repatriated after 10 months on the run

The Quebec Hells Angel, whose run ended yesterday in the Dominican Republic, would have pocketed an average of $ 20,000 each month with the sale of drugs in some areas of the province.

After 10 months of flight in the sun, Daniel-André Giroux returned to Quebec in spite of himself last night at the Montréal-Trudeau airport.

The one who was among the 10 most wanted criminals in Quebec was escorted by two investigators from the Sûreté du Québec and the Montreal police who had arrested him that morning in the Dominican capital of Santo Domingo.

This Hells member of the Montreal chapter was to be apprehended on April 24 at the same time as sixty other accused of the drug operation Objection.

However, the 48-year-old rider had gone south when the National Organized Crime Squad (ENRCO) sounded at home. And he was probably not in a hurry to return to the fold.

Shortly before his departure, the police conducted a search of his ice fishing business in Saint-André-d'Argenteuil, in the Laurentians, in February 2018. They had seized tens of thousands of dollars in cash hidden in cabins rented by the motorcycle company.

In a country of knowledge

According to our information, Giroux had been negotiating for some time with the authorities, through his lawyer.

However, the ENRCO did not want him to change his mind and disappear again. So they went to apprehend him in the Dominican Republic rather than wait for his return.

Giroux could count on several allies in this Caribbean country. The first chapter of the Hells Angels established in the Dominican Republic, in Cabarete, in 2008, was sponsored by the Hells of Quebec.

Regarded as a rising star of the biker gang, the one nicknamed Grand Dan would have put his pockets in 2017 by exercising control of certain drug sales territories in the Laurentians, Outaouais and Eastern Ontario. .

Paid "taxes"

According to our sources, he is suspected of having received more than $ 125,000 in just six months with royalties - also known as "taxes" in the jargon of the middle - that he allowed himself to be perceived by traffickers cocaine and methamphetamine doing business in "his" territories.

Giroux, like three other members in good standing of the Hells pinned in this operation, was tricked into making money transactions with a "mole" who had infiltrated the network on behalf of the police.

He is scheduled to appear today at the Montreal courthouse to answer charges of conspiracy, drug trafficking and gangsterism.

♦ Daniel-André Giroux is also the only accused among the sixty individuals arrested in the Objection investigation project that has not yet been tried. All the others pleaded guilty and received their sentence.

THE OBJECTION OPERATION
♦? Daniel-André Giroux is one of four Hells accused in Operation Objection, which targeted 63 suspects on April 24th.

♦ He is a member in good standing of the Hells Angels chapter of Montreal since March 2018.

♦ Over $ 2 million, 21 kg of cocaine, 200,000 methamphetamine tablets and 34 firearms were seized in this net.

♦ The Quebec dean of the Hells, Michel Sky Langlois, 72, was sentenced to 58 months of penitentiary in this case.

♦ Last month, Carl Ranger, who was both a police officer in Repentigny and a delivery man for a network of Hells traffickers, was sentenced to 18 months in prison as a result of this investigation.

Hells Angels gang members plead guilty in shooting

Hells Angel Hells complains to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.

The Hells Angel Éric Bouffard wants to be able to travel freely and goes in crusade against the federal authorities.

The biker, one of South Division's most influential, was turned away when he arrived in the Dominican Republic in 2016 because he is part of a criminal organization. It would also have happened a second time during a trip to Mexico. He obviously did not find it funny.

Eric Bouffard is indeed a great traveler. According to the 2000 Diversion police investigation into money laundering, the biker had flown thirteen times between 2006 and 2009, including eight times to the Dominican Republic or Mexico.

Bouffard wants to know why he is now registered by the authorities of these countries and how they have received information about him, presumably in order to show that it violates his rights.

Since 2017, his lawyer, M th Stéphane Handfield, made requests under the Act on Access to documents held by public bodies and the protection of personal information to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), the Agency Border Services Canada and Passport Canada.

M e Handfield said to have received satisfactory information from the last two bodies, but not the RCMP.

Éric Bouffard wants to obtain from the federal police all the information that he has about him, whether at his offices on Dorchester Street or at Trudeau Airport.

Last summer, the RCMP responded that "all of the information requested is subject to an exception under subparagraphs 22 (1) (a) (i) and 22 (1) (a) (ii) the Privacy Act, which states that a public body may refuse to disclose information that belongs to it.

No answer

The Office of the Commissioner first responded to last year's biker's lawyer that his complaint was well-founded because the RCMP took a long time to respond, but closed the case, saying the federal police had ended up answering.

"The RCMP responded that it can not answer, not an answer," fumed M e Handfield, who has filed a second complaint with the Commissioner.

"How do you explain that public bodies respond favorably to [an access to information request] and that the RCMP continues not to do so? This is unacceptable. "- M e Stéphane Handfield, lawyer Eric Bouffard

"If Mr. Bouffard wants to talk about his case, he can do it, but we, we do not have the right because of the Law on the protection of the private life", explained to the Press the sergente Camille Abel, RCMP's Division C (Quebec).

Other cases

Presumably, the information requested by the rider is intelligence-related and may be difficult or impossible to obtain.

In a La Presse article on the return of several bikers on their arrival in the Dominican Republic and Mexico, published in December 2017, the Sûreté du Québec spokesman, Inspector Guy Lapointe, declared that the decision to block Quebec riders on their arrival in these countries "belongs to the local authorities".

An employee of the Mexican consulate in Montreal added, saying that the decision to drive back a traveler was a "prerogative of local immigration officials".

In December 2017, La Presse revealed that a dozen Quebec motorcyclists had been turned back in these two countries, but other cases have since been added, including individuals linked to other organized crime groups in Montreal.

In April 2018, at least three Quebec motorcyclists were turned back on their arrival in Brazil, where was held the World Run, an international event of the Hells Angels.

It is unclear whether other bikers or individuals linked to other criminal organizations have initiated steps similar to those of Éric Bouffard, but it would not be surprising if some people follow suit.

This seems to be a new trend for the Hells Angels to use public mechanisms and judicial channels to assert their rights or obtain redress.

Some sued for tens of millions of dollars the Attorney General of Quebec, the Director of Criminal and Penal Prosecutions of Quebec and the Sûreté du Québec for their imprisonment or their arrest in the wake of the SharQc and Magot-Mastiff investigations.
