Following an intensified gangland feud, a relative of Steven ‘Bonzo’ Daniel has become the latest victim. Jamie ‘Grinch’ Daniel, his cousin, suffered a slash to the neck during an organized attack that took place near his residence.
This alarming incident comes on the heels of a recent attack on Bonzo’s family members. Mere days prior, homes belonging to Bonzo’s mother Annette – aged 63, and his uncle Norman – aged 72, were set alight in Bishopbriggs, which lies adjacent to Milton in Glasgow where Grinch was attacked.
An inside informant revealed details of the orchestrated event. According to them, the assailants yelled, ‘This is for your family’ during their bold confrontation, clearly indicating their intention to send a resonating message.
The attackers targeted Grinch with lethal intent, managing to injure him on the neck. This further stoked the tensions simmering in the community. ‘The area resembles a ticking time bomb waiting for the right moment to explode’, voiced the source, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation.
Discussion within the police force suggested that Grinch was to be relocated swiftly, upon identifying him and comprehending the situation on hand which could deteriorate swiftly.
The police have recently been active, pressing charges against 20 individuals involved in an array of violent incidents, including shootings and arson, that unfolded in and around Glasgow and Edinburgh. Among those charged is a 16-year-old accused of involvement in five instances of attempted murder.
It appears that the assault on Grinch, speculated to have taken place late last week, hasn’t been officially communicated to the police. This latest assault incident wasn’t the first time, as Grinch had previously been at the receiving end of a similar knife attack.
Eight years back, Grinch fell prey to a similar syndrome when two masked individuals attacked him with knives at his own residence – a traumatic incident that resulted in severe injuries.
Observers note that this wave of attacks seems to be orchestrated by a fresh faction led by an entity known by the alias ‘Miami’ from Dubai. Lately, this clandestine group has been putting increasing pressure on members of the Daniels’ network and their affiliates.
Surprisingly, the local police reported having no documentation of this most recent assault involving Grinch.
Intriguingly, there’s a rising concern that these gangsters are exploiting youngsters by luring them into their rapidly widening syndicate. Children are allegedly being charmed by the allure of financial rewards and a lavish lifestyle, becoming unwitting participants in this relentless gang rivalry.
Detective Chief Superintendent David Ferry sounded the alarm on this growing predicament. He stresses the importance of early intervention to prevent these rival groups from using young individuals as disposable assets in their orchestrated power struggles.
He advises vigilant scrutiny on the part of families, as the escalating gang-related violence has already led to 20 individuals being charged. Included among the accused is a teenager facing charges related to five attempts at murder.
Validating the scale of the ongoing chaos, Supt. Ferry confirmed that the proactive operation to thwart these violent activities is the largest in the area. Maintaining the momentum, police are ramping up raids on possible suspects suspected of being involved in the turf war.
