Qld: Bikie Bakir to face new charges

A court's been told the bikie brother of Gold Coast phone entrepreneur RON BAKIR will
be charged with a list of new offences .. as early as this weekend.

YASSAR BAKIR's legal team has turned up to the Supreme Court in Brisbane today .. to
make a bail application on charges of attempted murder .. dangerous conduct with a weapon
and possession of a firearm.

However .. prosecutor TAMARA THOMPSON's announced the new charges are pending against
the 32-year-old .. and it would be preferable to hear a bail application including the
new charges at a later date.

Ms THOMPSON says after organised crime police spoke to a key witness in the case ..

BAKIR will be now charged with a great number of new offences.

Supreme Court Justice DEBRA MULLINS has adjourned the bail application until next Tuesday
.. December 12.







BAKIR is accused of shooting 39-year-old PITA WILLIAM WILSON eight times .. at Southport
Spit on the Gold Coast on June 9.

A member of the Finks bikies .. BAKIR is the younger brother of RON BAKIR .. who attracted
enormous publicity through his involvement with the defence of convicted drug smuggler
SCHAPELLE CORBY.
