Taskforce Maxima Detective Inspector Brendan Smith said gang houses are used to plan and conduct criminal activities, as well as to store illegal drugs and criminal proceeds.
“By preventing gang members from attending their gang houses, their criminal activities are disrupted.
“It removes them from the shadows and makes it harder for them to do business.
“Gang members need to understand we will target them ‘anywhere, anytime’.
“We will do everything we can to dismantle their criminal activities and keep the community safe.”
