Codi Wilkinson was allegedly killed by a group of fellow Mongrel Mob members in September 2019.
An Aotearoa Mongrel Mob president allegedly bought booze and pizza for fellow gang members while a man they are accused of murdering lay dead in a garden hedge, a court has heard. The death allegedly happened because a junior mobster crossed that president, Jeremiah Sua, one time too many. The gangland and criminal justice systems came together in the High Court at Palmerston North on Thursday, the first day of the trial of five men accused of murdering Wilkinson in September 2019. Quentin Joseph Moananui, Dean Arthur Jennings, Mariota Sua, Jeremiah Sua and Jason David Signal deny the murder, kidnapping Wilkinson and his friend Kyle Rowe, wounding Rowe with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and participating in an organised criminal group.
