The police blitz resulted in more than 400 charges being laid against members, nominees and
associates of the Rebels.

Methamphetamine and cocaine with an estimated street value of more than $4 million, 25 illegal firearms and nearly half a million dollars in cash was seized.

Seventy-eight people associated with the Rebels are facing serious charges including
aggravated armed robbery, threaten to kill, extortion and drug-related offences.

The WA Police Force Gang Crime Squad took part in 'day of action' across Australia and New Zealand last Wednesday targeting the Rebels.

Police say raids on Rebels properties were carried out in Rockingham and Bunbury.

“The McGowan Government is serious about stopping the expansion of organised crime and
we’re doing everything we can to tackle these gangs," Police Minister Michelle Roberts said.

“I want to congratulate our police officers involved in these operations.

“These raids will have a significant impact and importantly disrupt the illegal activities of the
Rebels bikie gang.”
