The Australian Crime Commission (ACC) has announced that Australia’s outlaw motorcycle gangs will be put under the microscope of a new multi-agency task force targeting the highest risk groups and their members. The national task force, named Operation Morpheus, has been created by the Serious and Organised Crime Coordination Committee (SOCCC) to continue and expand the work of the Attero National Task Force, formed in February 2012. Operation Morpheus comprises all state and territory police agencies as well as the ACC, Australian Federal Police, Australian Customs and Border Protection Service, ATO, ASIC and AUSTRAC.
