Major shake-up in Australia’s underworld as new biker bosses named: Meet the new faces behind one of the country’s most feared gangs
- Bemir Saracevic, 35, new boss of Comancheros
- He is friends with fellow cyclists Allan Meehan and Tarek Zahed
A Melbourne house painter has been officially named the new national boss of the Comanchero biker gang.
Bemir Saracevic, 35, who drives a $700,000 Lamborghini Aventator, has replaced former national president Allan Meehan following his arrest last month.
Saracevic and Meehan, known as the Bathrobe Bikie after a series of photos of him in dressing gowns surfaced, are known for being close and were recently pictured together during the lightweight bout between George Kambosos and Devin Haney in October last year.
The Comancheros have experienced a series of leadership changes, with the ‘Supreme Commander’ – the group’s international boss – also changing hands.

That role will now be filled by a former Sydneysider now living in Dubai, Noah ‘Bones’ Ramziya, The Daily Telegraph reported.
Ramziya owns a wedding car rental company and succeeds former commander-in-chief Duax Ngakuru who was arrested in Turkey in January.
Considered the proud owner of a Bentley, Ramziya associates with former Comanchero Marco Coffin, who now lives abroad.
Another Comanchero, Tarek Zahed, would take over the national arm of the club before being arrested and charged with the 2014 murder of Youssef Assoum.
In 2016, Saracevic was sentenced to three years behind bars for blackmailing two property developers
Zahed had escaped an attempt on his own life outside a gym in western Sydney in May last year.
He suffered ten gunshot wounds in the attack that killed his brother Omar.
Saracevic has also been pictured with Zahed, and is good buddies with former Supreme Mick Murray – who is behind bars on murder charges.
The Comancheros leadership was in disarray when former President Mark Buddle was arrested in Turkey last August and extradited to Australia on drug importation charges.

Saracevic, a father of three, came to Australia with his family from war-torn Bosnia as a child.
He joined the Comancheros in 2013.
Despite the Comancheros boss being based in Melbourne, underworld sources claim members in Sydney are still in control.
Those Sydney motorcyclists run the ‘Commission’, a mafia-like organization that controls the price of imported drugs.
“Most drugs come into Sydney and go on from there and that’s where the power is, although a lot of guys have moved to the highway because of the pressure that NSW cops continue to put on them,” an underworld source told the publication.
