Finks bikies will soon be subject to control orders after the first use of South Australia's controversial anti-bikie laws

An unnamed Finks bikie has become the first person to have a control order enforced by the courts under SA's anti-bikie laws, introduced last year.Finks bikies will soon be subject to control orders after the first use of South Australia's controversial anti-bikie laws, SA Premier Mike Rann says.Police successfully applied for the order in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on Monday, preventing the man from associating or communicating with other Finks members.The man faces a five-year jail term if he breaches the order, which also bans him from possessing certain items and from entering the club headquarters.The bikie has 14 days to lodge an appeal against the order, which Mr Rann says is the first of many to be sought for Finks members.
"That process has started and I think there will be a lot more to come," he told reporters on Tuesday.The Finks motorcycle club was the first group to be declared a criminal organisation under the SA laws, now being considered interstate.Bikie gangs have vowed to fight the laws in the High Court, but the SA government maintains the legislation will pass any legal scrutiny.Police Minister Michael Wright said on Tuesday control orders aimed to break up associations of the gangs."These gangs are often made up of dangerous offenders who are heavily involved in the manufacture and sale of drugs, murder, extortion and intimidation," Mr Wright said
