A lawyer for the Hells Angels suggested Tuesday that a civil-forfeiture case against the notorious motorcycle club was motivated by a desire by the RCMP to get “bad guys,” and had nothing to do with concerns about the club’s Nanaimo property.
Arvay told B.C. Supreme Court Justice Barry Davies that he was going to ask the court to draw the inference that from the police perspective at least, the RCMP referral was much more about simply going after the motorcycle club than any real concern about the property. He accused the director of looking for “whatever hooks” are available in the applicable legislation to go after the property.
Brent Olthuis, a lawyer for the director, objected to the questioning on the basis that it was calling for hearsay from a witness on the motivation of the RCMP as the referring agency.Olthuis also objected to the questioning on the basis that it was not relevant to the issues in the case.
