Police have arrested a member of a Victorian outlaw motorcycle gang after he allegedly displayed a Nazi symbol on his vest.
A 55-year-old man, who police say is a member of the Black Uhlans Outlaw Motorcycle Gang (OMCG), was arrested this morning after officers searched a home at Bell Park in Geelong
Police said a vest was found with a patch allegedly containing the Nazi symbol.
The man is expected to be charged on summons with public display or performance of Nazi symbols or gestures.
“There is absolutely no place at all in our society for antisemitic or hate-based symbols and behaviour,” a Victoria Police spokesperson said in a statement.
The Victorian government introduced laws to prevent people from displaying or performing symbols and gestures used by the Nazi Party in public in October 2023
.
A person who commits an offence could face fines of $23,000, 12 months in prison or both.
The arrest comes after Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan was disrupted by self-proclaimed neo-nazi Thomas Sewell during a press conference this morning days after he prominently joined Sunday’s anti-immigration march.
