A Gold Coast man is one of six alleged bikies who have been arrested over the shootings of two people in New South Wales.

The two men, aged 20 and 33, survived the attempt on their lives at a barber shop in Marrickville in July last year.

Following ongoing investigations into the shootings, police identified a criminal syndicate involved in various criminality including commercial drug supply, and kidnapping conspiracies.

They executed search warrants at 12 properties across NSW and Queensland on Thursday, seizing $550,000 worth of luxury watches and jewellery, 8 motor vehicles and a motorcycle with a combined value of $500,000.

They also seized over $25,000 in cash, $12,000 worth of prohibited drugs, multiple electronics and OMCG paraphernalia.

A 42-year-old man was among those taken into custody after detectives raided his Broadbeach Waters home.

He is expected to be extradited to Tweed Heads today, where he is expected to be charged with participating in a criminal group.

Detectives also conducted a search of bushland and surrounding waterways in Georges Hall as part of an investigation into the link between the Marrickville shooting and that of Marvin Oraiha in Elizabeth Hills in May 2023.

Investigations under Strike Force Orsino and Strike Force Hackenburg continue.
