AUSTRALIA - Bikie link to bashing

OFF THE WIRE
POLICE said they spoke with bikie gxxg members after the brutal bashing of a man in Seven Hills but have not yet charged anyone.
A 28-year-old man was found with numerous stab wounds, two broken ankles, two fractured knee caps, two broken arms and cuts and abrasions at Seven Hills train station, just after midnight on Sunday.
The victim has so far refused to tell police who was responsible for his injuries and investigators have seized his car and phone as evidence.
Paramedics took the man to Westmead Hospital where he has remained in a serious but stable condition.
Police spoke with bikies at the Bandidos' clubhouse on the Prospect Highway, Seven Hills to "try and determine the circumstances surrounding the incident" but no one was arrested.
Detective Adam Wilson said police were severely hampered by the victim's unwillingness to co-operate and because no witnesses to the incident had come forward.
Detective Wilson said the victim had a Western Australia address and that investigators hoped to interview him again, if he was willing.
"We're still seeking to interview him," he said. "We don't know how long he's been in Sydney and we'd like to know what his plans are as there's not a lot of history for him in NSW."
