Rebels bikie gang makes move into New Zealand

MEMBERS of a motorcycle gang with links to a notorious Australian gang are thought to be holding a gathering in Christchurch this weekend. The Rebels Motorcycle Club has been trying to gain a foothold in New Zealand since the start of this year and police, who have been trying to stop them, believe up to 100 of them may be headed for Canterbury.

Detective Sergeant Kevin Holder told The Press the gang had been trying to book accommodation in the city but had been turned down.

"The Rebels are a fairly new group to New Zealand and appear to be trying to establish themselves and as police officers we're doing our best to ensure that doesn't happen," Det Sgt Holder said.
