Gangs Back In Confiscated House

http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/crime/3931601/Seized-gang-house-back-in-gangs-hands
They say its not good to kick a man when he's down. Mark Pitman Black Power President had the house confiscated from him and is now in jail because of cannabis offending. Now the property is being leased to the Black Power again from an unknown trust. If I remember correctly the Black Power received assistance from then Prime Minister Rob Muldoon in the form of works grants they used this leg up to obtain the possession and then ownership of the property. This happened back in the time when gang violence was a normal part of everyday life for Member's. Gang members have known for some time that hiding your assets in a trust makes it even harder for the powers that be to seize. It will be interesting to see what becomes of the situation now if I was Black Power I would want to be staying under the radar at this point.
