Advertisement 2 Annette Daniel, 63, left the court alone and on foot after her dock appearance 2 Daniel, 63, broke cover amid the ongoing gang feud to deny shoplifting at Paisley Sheriff Court Police beefed up their presence amid the ongoing turf war plaguing the country — which saw her home firebombed. Annette wore a smart camel-coloured blazer and trousers for her court date but had to wait around two hours for the case to call because her co-accused had not turned up. Sheriff Colin Pettigrew issued a warrant for James Shearer's arrest after he and his lawyer no-showed due to an 'administrative error'. Annette — who left court alone and on foot — was excused from appearing in person at a legal hearing in April after her solicitor raised 'professional concerns' for her safety due to the ongoing gang feud.

Shearer, 50, of Dennistoun, Glasgow, and Daniel, from nearby Bishopbriggs, are accused of stealing household goods from the Swedish retailer's superstore in the city's Govan in February 2023. The pair have been ordered to return to court to face the allegations later in the year.

Fugitive hood fled from Dubai nightclub when approached by Steven ‘Bonzo' Daniel
Sources claim an offer was made to compensate Miami for a dodgy £500,000 cocaine deal CLUB SHOWDOWN Fugitive hood fled from Dubai nightclub when approached by Steven 'Bonzo' Daniel Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE fugitive hood who kicked off Scotland's gangland war fled when approached by Steven 'Bonzo' Daniel in Dubai, it has been claimed. The drug dealer, dubbed 'Miami', bolted from a top nightclub after spotting the rival crime boss and some of his heavies were nearby, sources said. 4 Steven 'Bonzo' Daniel is said to have travelled to the UAE to speak with the fugitive Scot 4 Associates of Mark Richardson have been targeted during the ongoing gang war 4 The drug dealer, dubbed 'Miami', bolted from Bla Bla Dubai They also told how it was the latest bid to broker truce talks with the ambitious crook who, it's claimed, sees himself as the successor to caged mob boss Jamie 'Iceman' Stevenson, 60. It's believed the ex-Rangers ultra is backed by Glasgow's feared Lyons gang and Iceman's former right-hand man Stephen 'Jimmy' Jamieson, 42. An insider said: 'Miami was knocking back Champagne in Bla Bla Dubai when Bonzo and a crew approached him to talk about what's been going on. 'But when as he realised they were looking for him, he was off like a shot. Bonzo also tried to talk to him by encrypted phone but it came to nothing. 'This guy has the backing of Jamieson, who has basically been running the show since Iceman got jailed.' Sources claim an offer was made to compensate Miami for a dodgy £500,000 cocaine deal that sparked the feud more than two months ago. But so far he has refused to halt ongoing attacks across Edinburgh and Glasgow on associates of the Daniel family and Mark Richardson, 38. Our insider said: 'They can't do a thing to him out in the UAE but they made an offer over the drug deal which he has not accepted. 'Miami knows he is safe in Dubai. That's why some people say it's a coward's paradise. 'There is no way you would cause this much carnage over a £500,000 deal — it's a drop in the ocean and bad for business. The FULL story of Scotland's biggest gangster Jamie 'The Iceman' Stevenson Coming This Sunday 'So this turf war has more to do with someone trying to make a name for himself. 'But some think he is getting carried away and that he wants to be the new Iceman.' We told how the home of Bonzo's cousin Kelly 'Bo' Green, 45, was attacked by firebomb thugs this week. A front window at the pad in Drumchapel, Glasgow, was left scorched. Green's dad was the late crime boss Jamie Daniel. 4 Kelly 'Bo' Green's home in Drumchapel is the latest property targeted Cops have nicked more than 30 people since the mayhem began in Edinburgh when associates of caged crime kingpin Richardson were targeted. His Daniel allies then came under attack in the Glasgow area. Stevenson was jailed for 20 years last October over a plot to smuggle cocaine from South America in boxes of bananas and also supply street Valium. His jail term was cut in February to 16 years. A man, 23, was charged in connection with damage at two homes in Edinburgh last Saturday plus reset. He was arrested on Wednesday after cops investigating gangland violence raided a house in the city's Gilmerton.

Cousin of crime boss Steven ‘Bonzo' Daniel slashed in neck amid Scots gangland turf war
THE cousin of Steven 'Bonzo' Daniel has been slashed in the neck amid the ongoing gangland turf war, it's been claimed. Jamie 'Grinch' Daniel is said to have been attacked with a knife in a targeted street attack near his flat. 3 3 The ambush in Milton, Glasgow, comes days after enemies torched the homes of crime family boss Bonzo's mum Annette, 63, and his 72-year-old uncle Norman in nearby Bishopbriggs. A source told The Scottish Sun on Sunday: 'The guys that targeted him shouted, 'This is for your family'. 'They were out to get him big time and caught him on the neck. 'There's word cops wanted him moved as soon as they knew what happened and what his name was. The place is a powderkeg and it's all just waiting to go off.' Cops have charged 20 people after a wave of shootings and firebombings in and around Glasgow and Edinburgh, including a boy of 16 accused of five attempted murders. It is understood the assault on Grinch - said to have happened late last week - was not reported to cops. It is the second time in eight years he has been ambushed with a blade. He suffered serious injuries in June 2017 when two masked knifemen set upon him at his flat. The Daniels and associates of jailed Edinburgh cocaine kingpin Mark Richardson, 37, are said to be under attack by a new crew led by a Dubai-based ex-Rangers ultra known as 'Miami'. Police said they had no record of the latest incident involving Grinch. Meanwhile, gangsters are seducing kids to take part in their escalating turf war with promises of cash and a glamorous lifestyle, a top cop has warned. Detective Chief Superintendent David Ferry said early intervention is needed to stop rival mobs using youths as pawns. The head of Police Scotland's Specialist Crime Division urged families to be vigilant after 20 people were charged in connection with gangland violence — including a boy of 16 facing five attempted murder raps. And he confirmed the operation to end the thuggery is the biggest in the country as the force steps up its raids on suspects.
