A Queensland inquiry into the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) has uncovered allegations of attempts by the Comanchero motorcycle gang to infiltrate the state’s construction industry. Recent hearings focused on the gang’s alleged efforts to gain control and influence within the sector. The inquiry is examining potential links between the union and criminal organizations. Details emerged regarding the Comancheros’ purported strategies to “muscle in” on construction sites. Authorities are investigating the extent of the alleged involvement and any potential coercion tactics used. The hearings represent another stage in a broader investigation into practices within the Queensland CFMEU branch. These revelations raise concerns about organized crime’s impact on a key state economy.
