A senior Head Hunters gang member has been denied bail.
Police yesterday confirmed they had arrested and charged a 59-year-old man in relation to alleged possession of methamphetamine for supply. He can now be named as Phillip McFarland.
The roofer, who lives in Wellington, applied for bail today but Judge Nevin Dawson rejected the bid.
Details of today's hearing in Auckland District Court cannot be published.
Detectives from the Auckland Organised Crime Unit carried out a search warrant at the Head Hunters headquarters in View Rd, Henderson, on Wednesday morning, police said.
