Necati Arabaci sentenced to 15.5 years in Türkiye

Prosecutors had sought up to 35 years in prison for the European Hells Angels boss.

A Turkish court has sentenced Coskun Necati Arabaci, known as the “Father of Cologne” and “Hell’s Necati,” to a total of 15.5 years in prison for founding and leading a criminal organization and for related violent offenses. The Izmir 20th High Criminal Court issued the verdict at a hearing earlier this week. Arabaci was convicted of establishing and managing an organization for the purpose of committing crimes.

In June 2025, Necati Arabacı was at large, with no active efforts reported by Turkish authorities to extradite or investigate him. Despite having an EU warrant he remained the enigmatic leader of the European Hells Angels. He was reported on as he left Monaco. Necati 'Neco' Arabaci (born 14 February 1972) is a Turkish-German gangster and high ranking member of the HAMC. Arabaci resembles a Hollywood movie star from the 90s. The serious gang boss, also known as the Cologne Godfather, was celebrated on social media. Videos of Arabaci in Monaco are circulating on TikTok, some of which had millions of views. The drug baron seemed to revel in the videos. He appeared in expensive cars, including a Rolls-Royce with a Zurich license plate in Monte-Carlo. Arabaci parading in Monaco with bodyguards flaunting his wealth is a surprise. The gangster being an internet star on TixTox is unexpected behaviour of the presumptive leader of European Hells Angels. His account has since been deleted.

The Arabaci clan controlled the bouncer scene of the nightclubs in Cologne's entertainment district, the Kölner Ringe, and his gang recruited women to work as prostitutes. Arabaci also controlled brothels in the Rhein-Ruhr region of Germany. Arabacı was active in Cologne.  In 2002 he was arrested in Germany for pimping, human trafficking, assault, extortion, weapons and racketeering. He was sentenced to nine years in prison and deported to Turkey in 2007. During his detention in Germany, Arabacı plotted to kill the prosecutor, and even hired a killer for the task.

Erkan Akyol died mysteriously in March 2026.

Erhan Akyol, right hand man to Necati Arabacı was shot by a helmeted assailant while eating on the terrace of a restaurant in Istanbul in April. Akyol was shot in the calf. He was involved in murder plots with Iranian operative HA Ramin Yektaparast. Yektaparast was killed by a Mossad agent in April 2024.

In 2010 Arabaci took part in a meeting of HA bosses in Izmir, Turkey after being appointed president of the Hells Angels MC Nomads Turkey. By 2013 Arabaci was seen the new leader of the European Hells Angels, after leader Frank Hanebuth was busted in Spain. In 2015, Spanish cops issued a warrant for Arabaci’s arrest, valid in the EU.

High-status Hells Angels Necati Arabacı was nabbed by Turkish security in western Izmir province’s Çeşme district in 2020. He was released. Turkey doesn't extradite it's citizens.

Peter 'Skitzo' Hewat

Peter 'Skitzo' Hewat was one of Australia Hells Angels' longest-serving and most notorious members. Mystery surrounded his sudden split from the Sydney chapter in January, 2025. Answers came in March after cops pounced. Weapons, drugs, tobacco and cash were seized and nine bikers and associates busted after police landed hard on the Hells Angels bikie gang. Cops were tipped off, and they said the heinous HA bikers were “driven by greed and profit”. Top two names were former Hells Angels strongman Peter 'Skitzo' Hewat and his son.

The bikie’s son Beau pleaded guilty in the $200k booze heist. The younger Hewat was a debt collector for the club. He and others hijacked a truck containing Jack Daniels whiskey in a brazen robbery. Beau Peter Hewat, 34, walked free after a booze heist in 2023. He was sentenced to time served. A psychiatrist told the court Beau Hewat's offending was driven “primarily” by his meth use and problematic relationship with his father. The son of notorious Hells Angels bikie Peter 'Skitzo' Hewat didn't fall far from the tree. The elder Hewat's record is a long one. He was sentenced to 12 months' prison after he pleaded guilty to dealing in $250k worth of stolen truck parts. The court noted the HAMC sergeant-at-arms had been committing crimes for more than 40 years.

One of his more infamous convictions was for assaulting a kind-hearted grandmother who had taken in Hewat's lost shih-tzu terrier. The woman had put out posters of the dog after she found it near Hewat's Craigieburn home in 2013. When Hewat claimed ownership, she demanded proof before she handed the dog over. Hewat forced his way through her front door and punched her when she blocked his way. In September 2015 a former employee of Hewat falsely confessed to stealing a truck because he was afraid of the Hells Angels boss. He claimed to owe $10k to Hewat and was terrified he would be killed if he didn’t make the false confession.

The bikie made headlines in 2014 when he was busted in Melbourne. He was found in a car with a baseball bat and erectile dysfunction medication.

Sgt. Sarbjit Kaur Sangha - CFSEU rat

Sgt. Sarbjit Kaur Sangha is still dishing up CFSEU propaganda. We say she is a major security risk every time she pollutes an RCMP uniform. One can only hope that she is permanently removed from sensitive drug investigations, particularly her Sandher Crime Family. Sarbjit Kaur Sangha has been under suspicion of some RCMP brass for virtually all of her 4+ years of working for the Sandher Crime Family. One or more senior RCMP in B.C. have been protecting Sarbjit Kaur Sangha. Canadian cops have been less than useless nailing the Sandhers and nobody knows it better than the frustrated Americans. RCMP incompetence and a rat in their midst is the reason the Sandher Crime Family is still producing synthethic drugs from multiple drug labs in B.C.

The best sources say the reason the Sandher Crime Family hasn't been busted is Sgt. Sarbjit Kaur Sangha.

The cop is a traitor protecting the Sandher Crime Family and she has been doing that for over 4 years. A dive on this woman's background gives one the heebie jeebies. "Nearly a decade spent in the Drug Unit gave her extensive insight into the gang landscape across the Lower Mainland and B.C."

What this criminal traitor did was sell her in-depth knowledge of cop operations against the Sandhers.

It all falls perfectly into place. 'Operation Valley Cloak' in 2018 came 'that close' to nailing the Sandhers. After 2018 the drug operations of the Sandhers and Brothers Keepers were a top priority of the BCFSEU. This woman was on the Sandher payroll for the 'Goldrush' phase of the industrial drug operation with Ryan Wedding.

Sarbjit Kaur Sangha was a key member of the CFSEU on October 31, 2024 for the bust of the Falkland Lab, a bust that resulted in a single arrest. She had intimate details of the entire Sandher operation and investigation. She was intimately aware of the subsequent 6 Sandher lab busts that followed.

The reason the Sandher Crime Family has remained untouched is Sarbjit Kaur Sangha. It wasn't long after this photo was taken that Sarbjit Kaur Sangha began working for the Sandhers. Her cop propaganda "Sgt. Sarbjit Kaur Sangha’s journey is one of determination, resilience, and service. After immigrating to Canada in 1997 from a small village in Punjab, India, she remained steadfast in pursuing her childhood dream of becoming a police officer."

CFSEU-BC announced March 16 that Sangha was moved out of the drug unit and into the Media Relations Unit. Our information says Sarbjit Kaur Sangha stayed loyal only to Sandher grease. She is FILTHY dirty. She took drug money from Khalistani decision makers. She is the primary reason why the Sandhers were always one step ahead of the cops. She was promoted recently. This Punjabi is a screaming danger to every Canadian. Pure management dopes at the RCMP need to promote her again and reassign her to some back office cubicle that is NEVER allowed to access active investigation files again. One needs to wonder which RCMP brainiac thought giving adult Punjabi immigrants inside access to the Sandher's drug empire was a great idea.

Neil Young sues Trump for $10m over use of ‘Rockin’ in the Free World’, again

This is Neil Young's second time suing Trump over the song, first filing a lawsuit in 2020. The suit was settled on the condition that Trump would not use 'Rockin’ In The Free World' without permission from Young. But at an Ohio rally this month, Trump played “Rockin’ In The Free World” despite being “personally aware that a license would be required” to play the song. According to a lawsuit filed on Monday in Virginia, Trump also knew that Young “has not and would not grant the required license.”

Maurice Law - 'Indigenous law firm' - Ron Maurice

On August 18, 2025 'indigenous' law firm Maurice Law filed a statement of claim against Rob Louie, the founder of the Band Members Alliance and Advocacy Association of Canada (BMAAAC), alleging Louie defamed the firm’s founder, Ron Maurice. The claim is seeking $5m in damages. Founded in 2002, Maurice Law claims on its website to be the first – and only – Indigenous-owned national law firm in Canada. Maurice’s bio states he is of Cree-Métis heritage. That is disputed. Maurice Law has represented a number of First Nations in their land claim and agricultural benefits claim settlements and has been accused of stealing millions. Maurice Law most recently made headlines when Keeseekoose First Nation in southeastern Saskatchewan decided to terminate the firm’s services due to the cost of legal fees. In a letter addressed to Keeseekoose band members, the chief and council stated that in two of its previous claims – Racing Lake and Agricultural Benefits (Cows and Plows) – the cost to Keeseekoose was $8.9m and $6m, respectively.

Beardy's and Okemasis Cree Nation won a decision against Calgary-based Maurice Law in July 2025. Legal fee agreements between them and its former law firm were unfair and, in some cases, unenforceable, a Saskatchewan judge ruled. Beardy’s had won a $4.5m judgment for withheld annuities, and in 2024, the nation reached a $4.1m settlement with Canada for unpaid salaries to chiefs and council. Maurice Law demanded more than $1.1m in fees plus a share of future contingency payments, even though it had already been paid.

The agreements included what the court called “poison pill” clauses: if the clients switched lawyers before a settlement, they could owe up to half the expected contingency fee, plus other charges. The judge ordered Maurice Law to reimburse Beardy’s more than $826,000, as well as $100,000 in enhanced costs. Records showed one lawyer claimed 25 hours in a single day, and the nation was charged 338 hours just to draft a declaration of claim.

Among other claims, MCFN asserted that Maurice Law was unjustly enriched.

The judge found many of the same problems with contracts Maurice Law had with One Arrow First Nation, including confusing terms and harsh penalty clauses, and ruled those agreements were also unfair or unenforceable. Maurice Law said it intends to appeal the judicial decision. “Poison pill” clauses are not common in most law firms. Mikisew Cree First Nation launched litigation against Maurice Law in March 2024 regarding their 2018 Cows & Ploughs (Agricultural Benefits) Settlement. rmaurice@mauricelaw.com, bregehr@mauricelaw.com

There were two aspects to the claim: 1. Maurice Law agreed to repay MCFN $2,692,264.17 of Treaty monies that were sent to him as “legal fees” (equivalent to 2% of the settlement, while Maurice Law took 6% in legal fees); and 2. MCFN claims that the Nation was denied the right to challenge the total legal fee of $8,158,376 paid to Maurice Law. (tanya.adams@mikisewcree.ca) In 2016, the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal found that Maurice Law had already been hired on an hourly basis to represent Sakimay First Nation in land and flooding claims. After a multi-million dollar settlement was nearly finalized, the firm pushed Sakimay to sign a new deal that would give Maurice Law a 3% bonus. Experts say predatory practices by Maurice Law result in windfall profits and unfair outcomes that disproportionately harm First Nations clients. Legal experts say the issue is more common and causes more harm among First Nations than with the general population and the worst offender is Maurice Law. In its statement, Maurice Law blamed its competitors for "encouraging clients to challenge our fees."

Indigenous organizations are pushing for reforms to how law societies regulate legal fees charged to First Nations by preditory law firms. MLT Aikins LLP, the firm representing Bready’s in the matter involving Maurice Law, said Maurice Law has initiated a defamation lawsuit in Alberta against the firm and three MLT Aikins lawyers personally.

In 2025, Sweetgrass First Nation went to court after Maurice Law demanded immediate payment of over $5.4m in legal fees from a settlement trust. Sweetgrass had already ended its contract with the firm and wanted the fees reviewed first. The judge ruled that Sweetgrass’s right to have the fees assessed comes first, and Maurice Law cannot demand instant payment before a review.

Stéphane 'Fesse' Plouffe

The luxury home of a longtime Quebec Hells Angels Stéphane 'Fesse' Plouffe is on the market for nearly $2.1 million, just over two months after he disappeared and the property was firebombed. Plouffe, 57, was reported missing August 3. He was last seen in Kanesatake, according to the Journal de Montreal.

Plouffe disappeared on the eve of a mega trial for Mafia boss Leonardo Rizzuto and 10 others in Montreal. Plouffe may have fled to avoid having to testify, or he did the unthinkable and has flipped to testify against former associates. Plouffe has pulled a disappearing act before. He was a no show for the initial wave of busts in 'Operation Springtime'. Some are saying a flury of high level talks among HAMC brass before he went away says Plouffe won't be coming back this time.

Ryan Wedding's Iqbal Singh Virk = 9 years

Iqbal Singh Virk, Ranjeet Singh Rowal.

Brampton truck driver Iqbal Singh Virk, 58 has been sentenced to nine years (108 months) in a U.S. federal prison after admitting his role in a cross-border transportation network moving large quantities of cocaine from California into Canada. Virk’s eventual plea agreement acknowledged that the conspiracy involved more than 1,800 kilograms of cocaine. For Virk, the operation came to an end on Aug. 28, 2024, when his truck reached the U.S. side of the Blue Water Bridge. A search of the truck uncovered a concealed compartment containing 95kg of cocaine and 20kg of heroin. He's been caged ever since. Co-driver and truck owner Ranjeet Singh Rowal previously pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 37 months.

Rolan Sokolovski, accused of laundering hundreds of millions for Ryan Wedding, was denied bail. Prosecutors opposed his release, arguing Sokolovski posed a flight risk and his detention was necessary to protect the public and confidence in the justice system. The judge agreed. Sokolovski is alleged to have played a key role in the criminal enterprise by laundering drug money through his jewelry business and procuring luxury items for Wedding. Allistair Chapman was also denied bail.

The two key money men behind Wedding's network were Toronto jeweller Rolan Sokolovski and former Italian special forces member Gianluca Tiepolo. Tiepolo “worked closely with Sokolovski to procure and manage Wedding’s physical assets, including high-end vehicles,” and held “millions of dollars in Wedding’s property under his own name to conceal these assets from authorities.” Main man at the executive table was 'Cocaine Lawyer' Deepak Paradkar. An Ontario court granted bail to Deepak Paradkar, Wedding's Toronto-area defence lawyer.

Ryan Wedding 44, who FBI Director Kash Patel labelled the “modern-day iteration of Pablo Escobar,” was under increasing pressure in Mexico. Under the protection of the Sinaloa Cartel, his decision to return to Mexico was a mistake.

Rasheed Pascua Hossain, 32, is accused in the U.S. of laundering hundreds of millions for fugitive Ryan Wedding’s cocaine trafficking network. Hossain, who went by the alias JP Morgan, was granted bail. If anybody has the means to avoid a lifetime in a US jail it’s Hossain. Rasheed Pascua Hossain sent Wedding more than $200m worth of Tether stablecoin between April 29, 2024 and Oct. 5, 2024. The network would continue to send each other massive sums of Tether, often using the crypto exchange platform KuCoin. Hossain was a key part of Weddings money laundering network.

Gursewak Singh Bal is charged. Bal was paid $10,000 by Wedding associate Allistair Chapman in October 2024 not to post about defendant Wedding and right hand man Clark but to post the witness’s photo instead so he could be located and whacked. On Jan. 31, 2025, Wedding sent a message to an associate saying the victim was dead. The same day Bal posted a story depicting a photograph of the restaurant and part of a body lying on the ground, and a caption that read: “(Victim A) down…” and “BOOM! Headshot.”

After advice from Paradkar, Wedding paid Gursewak Singh Bal to post photos of Acebedo-Garcia and his wife. Drug trafficker turned informant Jonathan Acebedo-Garcia, 42, was gunned down in a Medellin restaurant before he could testify in the FBI case against Wedding. A U.S. federal indictment charges 15 with orchestrating the January 2025 murder of Jonathan Acebedo-Garcia, who was shot five times in the head.

Gurpreet Singh and Hardeep Ratte are two of Wedding's co-defendants. Acebedo-Garcia met with Singh and his uncle, Hardeep Ratte, at a Toronto-area auto body shop. The judge was told prosecutors in California have video of the meeting, as well as chat records from the encrypted-messaging app Threema. U.S. prosecutors warned against granting bail to Singh, who Wedding took credit for negotiating the release of, after Singh was kidnapped by cartel members in Sinaloa over a $600k drug debt. Singh has "extensive organized crime connections within Dubai, including relationships with members of the Kinahan gang." Singh was involved in a scheme to ship stolen high-end cars to Dubai through the port of Montreal.

Toronto cops arrested Singh on the 34th floor of the five-star St. Regis Hotel. He claimed poverty and to not be a flight risk. Bail was denied.
