A fourth man with alleged ties to an outlaw motorcycle gang has appeared in court following a police investigation into an alleged $10 million cocaine trafficking operation.
Bradley Keen, 34, appeared before the ACT Magistrates Court on Thursday, September 3, where he applied for bail.
He is yet to enter pleas to charges of trafficking a commercial quantity of cocaine and participating in a criminal group.
Three co-accused men - Adam Ha, 36, Domenico Luca Costanzo, 31, and Matthew Byrne, 36 - appeared in the same court last week.
Ha and Byrne were refused bail on charges including trafficking cocaine and possessing an unauthorised weapon, while Costanzo was granted strict bail on similar drug and weapons charges.
The court previously heard the men allegedly have ties to the Bandidos outlaw motorcycle gang.
Police have been investigating the alleged criminal group since early 2025 and believe it is responsible for trafficking more than 70 kilograms of cocaine.
On Thursday, the court heard that police documents referenced an alleged drug run in May, during which Keen's phone appeared to track alongside a vehicle involved in the transport.
Police also seized "a large amount of cash" found hidden in a food container allegedly linked to Keen, the court heard.
Keen's Legal Aid defence lawyer, Eimear Silk, applied for bail on her client's behalf, arguing the prosecution case against the accused man was "weak".
She noted that nothing in the documents directly linked Keen to drug planning or trafficking.
Prosecutor Paul Edmonds opposed bail, arguing Keen posed a risk of committing offences in the community and interfering with witnesses.
He told the court police had sighted Keen with other alleged gang members, adding there was "ample evidence" Keen had also breached a NSW intensive correction order prohibiting him from leaving NSW or consuming drugs.
Magistrate James Lawton granted Keen bail after finding court documents largely concerned the co-accused men, rather than directly linking Keen to the alleged operation.
He also found that the prosecution had failed to establish Keen posed an unacceptable risk to the community.
Keen's bail conditions include a ban on using illegal drugs and contacting any co-accused.
Anna Turek Jobling, who the court heard is Keen's partner, was also granted bail in court on Thursday after she was charged with attempting to destroy or conceal evidence.
The cases will return to court later this year.
