Ali Albadri, a member of Kazem Hamad’s 313 crew, was shot dead in his home in Wollert yesterday afternoon, allegedly in front of his children. Local sources say a kill car had been parked in the street since that morning, and the hit went down the moment his wife left the place around 5:45pm.

Gangland sources allege Helal Hoblos may have been involved in the commission of this murder. They point to the drive-by on Flinders Place in Caroline Springs the day before that was aimed at him, and to the grandiose attitude he showed mainstream media while they filmed there. The same sources allege Hoblos was the intended target in that attack, payback over a Bali incident involving people tied to Kazem Hamad months earlier, right in the middle of the bar wars. They link both jobs directly to the same dispute that started on a flight to Bali late last year and spilled into Melbourne.
