TWO members of the Comanchero bikie gang arrested over their involvement in an alleged tax fraud will remain in custody until at least March.
Neither 23-year-old Shahin Norozian nor his 26-year-old associate Danny Nassar made an application for bail in Burwood Local Court this morning.
Norozian, arrested yesterday at an apartment complex in Rhodes, was charged with attempted murder following the police operation.
The 23-year-old - who police believe is linked to the Comanchero outlaw motorcycle group - was also charged for six counts of firearms offences.
Nassar, who was also arrested at the Rhodes premises was charged with larceny, goods in custody and firearms offences.
A subsequent search of a property in south-west Sydney revealed a number of suspicious bank cheques and three pistols.
Both were refused bail by police.
Police allege the pair were involved in a major fraud operation and are connected to the Doonside shooting of rival gang member Saber Murad in November.
Murad has been linked to the bikie gang Notorious.
Detectives have been working with the Australian Tax Office since April last year.
Supported by other Comanchero members in Burwood Local Court today, neither Norozian nor Nassr applied for bail.
They will return to court on March 16.
