But he's also got Mick Gatto and another alleged gangland figure, John Coorey, on his payroll.

He's tied up with the Comintero Baikie gang.

Why does a very successful building company owner need to work with Baikies and gangland figures?

What's he getting from them?

Now, the police a few days ago raided one of his properties.

They've grabbed his phones.

And according to the police statement, it's over an alleged firebombing of a construction industry person's home.

A number of

buildings, properties, cars, machinery have been torched all across Melbourne.

Police are obviously investigating whether Marek has any connection to that.

I'm not saying Marek's involved in that, but the police are curious as to what he knows about these firebombings and they raided his property just a few days before Gatto's.

All unanswered questions.

I guess I'll boil it right down.

What does it all mean?

It means there's organised crime, there's gangland operations still happening as we speak in the building sector, and there's a real struggle between law enforcement and the dark side at the moment that's still playing out.

The Victorian Premier, as you say, announced that our anti-corruption body in Victoria will get new powers maybe in 18 months to follow the money from major government projects to gangland figures.

It looks a lot like a delaying tactic because it should be in place, not now, it should have been in place two years ago when this stuff all started coming out.

It's much needed and it's not yet in place.

So as we speak, there's no anti-corruption agency that's on the job looking at the way

Gangland figures, bikey gangs have infiltrated government projects.
