The Turkish Gang Who Ran South London In The 80s | Gangs Of Britain | Absolute Crime 

Difference in the Krays were and are REAL

😊

@@jade4r4 the krays loved having their willy coated in poo

@@jade4r4 krays were celebrities. Everyone knew they were scared of the Richardsons. Richardsons were on a different level but Charlie was smart so stayed away from any sort of war that was not needed but he knew if the krays slipped up once that’ll be it for them. Even the members of the Krays gang that are still alive say this.

@@jade4r4 there were around 20 members of the Kray gang who had pistols arif had 7 brothers alone & had near to 60 members on the pay roll. Linked to 15 murders & were Earning 12 million a year & were getting sub machine guns from turkey. Talking about there not real is the stupidest thing I ever ever heard.

just what i was thinking pile of dung im off lol

The whole thing is a mess!

Indeed , well said.

😂😂😂

brilliant. you plonker lol.

What about Ronnie Pickering.

@@donnaspeer2760 yer along with Scotch Arry and Ugandan Morris 😂

Trigger and his broom was the muscle back then

I’m not from there, but I heard they had their own patch of south London around the Rotherhithe area which they had the run of. Plus a number of a business interests on the Old Kent Road. You obviously had other gangs in South London such as the Brindles and Dailey’s, plus I assume some of the old guard from the 60s.

​Spot on mate. The Brindles were very handy as well but the Arifs were not to be messed with .....Im Deptford based and 60 yrs old so grew up when the Arifs and Brindles were on top of their game shall we say!!! ​@@Slim_45

​@@Slim_45 I ran a pub in rotherhithe, got on quite well with the Arifs!! Started by expressing interest in my fruit machines, the long time locals warned me to be careful, I got on fine with them, luckily!

@@thesteveo1975 Ah cool! Yes I read stories that Dogan Arif was the most outgoing and friendly of the bunch! But also read he walked into a pub in Rotherhithe in late 70s and pointed a sewn off at some punter (assume he owed him money) and shot him in the shoulder and calmly walked out! Witnesses were not forthcoming lol!

The dirty South 😂

was the money good?

You had a good plan, until you got punch in the face!!😂😂

You live n you learn...or do you??

Plus you can trust no one

@@salas..5686 Basically. Thats how it goes.

Turkey,not Cyprus and he owns a big hotel casino

Fisher athletic...my uncle played for them and Millwall Dave memhet

Yes mate so true....I'm late 50s duggan was the duke

gone shopping? :D

serrrrrrrrrrriously!!

Thanks il have a look for the book,cheers.

The show was great flying squad.

Tony's nephew John Ash ( RIP) was my best mate and the robbery he got killed on was absolutely nothing like the Arifs. I knew Ronnie Easter brook ( RIP) and your talking shit bruv

@@aaronsmith5056 you cant just say someone is "talking shit" and then leave it there. Might help your point if you go on to say why someone is talking shit. It's reminiscent in the fact that they were both armed robberies, someone died and the police had them under surveillance.

What about the Armenian genocide ? And the treatment of Kurds ? Or the centuries of oppressive Ottoman rule in the Balkans ?

they are clue less

That's what I thought not North London East London

I think you’ll find Krays we’re very much North London- they had a club in Manor House. They also used to congregate in Stoke Newington. In fact a a child they used to meet on our street. In Stoke Newington and ice cream for every kid on the street

you obviously aint got a clue what you're talking about @@datheat2854

they were from Bethnal Green which is obviously east London @@datheat2854

Yep lol

Every one from south east London remembers the Connoisseur.

as a mini cab driver i olften picked up from there

I knew her granddaughter plus I think there's a book about Shirley called the queen of thieves.

​Me to from Hoxton, know her family ​@stewyb5574

David Haye is from Bermondsey so it would be likely that he may have come across them!! 😄

Theres always that one useless comment just begging for likes isnt there.

@@uueyesh8909 ?

That’s why David Haye wore a Turkish Cypriot flag on his shorts.

Yes David haye has a Turkish Cypriot flag tattooed on his wrist and on his big toe 😮

Serious question how did the Argos get so big when back in the day I thought all the old school were racist as. Didn't think they'd allow that

@thechunkyone7118 Being racist ain't no guarantee of toughness. There will always be people out there willing go further than the next nutter..

@@UBZUKki I just mean the old boys woud of been more established with old links and alliances. As immigrants or sons of immigrants they would of had to start from scratch

@thechunkyone7118 Most of the old boys were either dead, or in prison. That would leave a major void. New faces, immigrants or firms would fill that void and takeover...

As the Argos sells everything 😂 ​@@thechunkyone7118

Great memories mate. I remember the barbers your talking about here and a few of my pals from the Dunton Bridge and Old Kent Rd areas popped in there now and then but I used to go snd see the Arifs in their Tom shop or catch them at their club a few doors along if I had a few things they were interested in lol. Alot of us from down Millwall would frequent either their nightclub/winebar or go to the Henry Cooper, Duncow, Green Man or World Turned Upside Down to name a few late drinking spots on the OKR. Im still in the area and my daughter is good friends with their grand daughter so Ive always known of them but had nothing but respect for the family ....cos they didnt fucc about if you upset them ha ha

@@michaeldunn7554 I’m 66 now was 19-23 at the time The good ole days 👌🏽

I`m the same age as you, and I grew up in Dunton Road, a stones throw from The Dun Cow. Near George`s Bar across the road. Do you remember Maud Peeny who sold the Evening Standard from her box outside The Dun Cow? I remember a newsagents in Dunton Road, just before Marcia Road, and Banfield Coaches. There was a greengrocers on the corner, I don`t remember a barbers though.

That's evil mate. Thank God you survived! 😝😝😝

Still a better experience than eating English food willingly 😅

"in my black cab" = ✖️ "in me black cab" = ✔️ ● If ur gonna be a cabbie...u need 2 speak proper...nah at mean 😉 ● Oi, Oi - Sort it out 👍🏼 (Sweet as.)

What do you mean. HAD. MMMM

fake taxi?

Had his brother in my black cab. He's a prick. Lives in Fitzroy Square.

@@johnnymomo1 😂

And who runs the organized crime in the north ?

and singers both in the same group also still shite back then

Yardies were brain dead. End up dead or skint

Hahahahahaha how many yardie millionaires are there ?

@@Rumpleforeskin77 im talking about the killings

@@spamspam7265 by any parameter the yardies are nothing but a few disorganised bottom of the chain crack dealers who occasionally did some sloppy shootings . The Arifs Hassans Brindles Daley's etc were far more organised and chalked up more murders . You any idea how many David Brindle killed ?

😂😂 could never test the yardies 😂😂 dudes in dreamland...in South London the oldskool White firms and the Ariffs etc are equal to anything yardies have ever done and whilst the Whites are multi millionaires like the Ariifs are the yardies still tread the pavement with £10 shots of crack in their mouths 😂😂

was they trouble makers the brindles then

@@johnratcliffe4344 They wasn't troublemakers, they were dangerous. A glancing look could set them off and you didn't get a slap, you got badly hurt. I knew one pub landlord who had to ask them not to frequent his pub any more because they empted it and he wasn't making any money. Luckily for him they never took offence and moved on to somewhere else.

@@terrabyte911 how many brothers is there 🤔 4.

@@terrabyte911 cheers 4 replying back.

@@johnratcliffe4344 I Don't know how many there were. It wasn't just them, it was the people around them. They were a very dangerous and feared firm.

Bagshot Street, where David Brindle ( RIP) was shot dead

No he was killed in east street

Over most people's heads 😂

Big money for that kind of crime. What kind of thing did they rob?

The same as the long fella, the blundles, the Adam’s family, only diff is the heroin connections the arifs had made them super wealthy!!

Shame on all

Blundells were the biggest... what guy shoots at 3 gang rivals and gets let of on a self defence... blundells are the biggest as nothing is said about them in media or on google searches.. while type every one else's name and the media has a brief up on them... what does that tell u.... nothings allowed to be said or written about the blundells.. free mason??

Yo their very nice people in their normal everyday family lives!!! But business wise they were not to be crossed at all!! I’ve heard this personally through close Jamaican and Turkish family friends that they were hardcore

@@Mashamillions nice people don’t sell smack

yeah, THE NASH FAMILY

😂😂😂😂😂

They was

Born in Hoxton, moved Bethnal green in the 40s mother did

Those where the good old days. ● U'd go 2 the Charlie Chaplin pub, just by the roundabout. For about £25, Danny behind the bar would put a little sa une under the serviette ur drink came with 😉 ● U'd wake up 3 days later 😵‍💫 | 🤣🤣🤣

True i see about 10 in my city centre their not cutting hair

😐

Your a nobody then🤪

I grew up in Salford Manchester in the 80’s and we all heard of them.

@@DennisTheMenace-1999 same I grew up in hulme and heard of them

I think he got east mixed up with north 😂

North of the river though.

Still?

the brindles still about

@@johnratcliffe4344 in your opinion which crime groups are the strongest in London nowdays and England in general?

​@@RamoDjukathe Albanians. I'd say you don't hear off crime familys like you used to

​@@RamoDjuka You become the "strongest" by dealing in the biggest "earner"....drugs. You can then employ,the maddest,hardest, craziest m,fs around because you can afford to pay them more than the gang who does..."petty" crimes. Find the gang dealing exclusively with major importations,there be the "strongest".

He was only going to McDonalds.

That was just his side hustle, his day job was Turkish kingpin.

It's Memet Arif

​@davidjohn8795 Nah! More like Ozgur or Omar.

@@re7416 ozar

So true, funny how it seems..

Who are you to say they weren’t Gangster? They were definitely Gangsters mate. Old school as they come.

Wooden ladder?

"Maserati 60 grand....talk to me"

The Kemp twins played The Krays in a 1990 film. Hence the loose connection

I think they meant North of the river

North of the river....

And why is Hackney classified as east, when it's geographically north London?

@@GG-jw8pt because it's to the east of central whereas say Tottenham is directly north of central

As my old nan used to say; ‘Never go south of the river or north of Chigley’.

😂😂😂😂

Exactly bad journalism! 😢

East London is still North of the river

@@brosephyolonarovichstalin2915 it is but its not North London

Whos that?

There's 7 brothers mate

​@@aaronsmith5056how many brothers in the brindle family?
