Top 6 prison gangs of New Zealand

#gridsparta ----------------------------- The impact of New Zealand clubs and gangs is a topic of significant discussion, encompassing their activities, strength, composition, and apparent growth. While calculating club or gang membership numbers is challenging, understanding the available data sources and their limitations is crucial. According to the Department of Corrections, gangs and biker clubs have been present in New Zealand communities and prisons for generations, deeply rooted in certain parts of society. In recent years, the proportion of the prison population with identified gang or club affiliations has been rising, reflecting the growth of these groups in the wider community. Over the past three decades, the percentage of people in prison with clubs and gang affiliations has steadily increased, with approximately 35% of the prison population having gang or club affiliations at any given time. The Department of Corrections identifies individuals as connected to a gang or a club through various means, including gang or club tattoos and markings, documentation, paraphernalia, admissions to staff, staff observations, and intelligence from other sources. Here is a list of top clubs and gangs that are populating the new zealand prisons. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow Grid Sparta on Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/GridSparta Facebook:   / gridsparta   Instagram:  / gridsparta   Twitter:  / gridsparta   Reditt:   / gridsparta   Podcast: https://anchor.fm/grid-sparta
