Edinburgh gang war enforcers warn of 'new wave of attacks' in chilling video
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info The mob behind a series of firebombings in Edinburgh have warned of further attacks in a chilling new video. Gangland enforcers have vowed to step up attacks and target those associated with Mark Richardson and the Daniel crime clan as footage of the latest firebombing also featured. The faceless gang waging war on those in Edinburgh and Glasgow on behalf of kingpin Ross McGill issued the warning and insisted they have no social media accounts and never will. They also posted footage of a property on Jackson Way in Tranent on fire after it was targeted on Friday, June 13. As the Record reports, the front door and a window were engulfed in flames. The clip then ends with a warning more attacks will come as they boasted of targeting more than 40 people since March as cars, businesses and homes linked to both Richardson and the Daniels suffered significant damage. They then went on to mock one of Mark Richardson's top associates David McMillan, who was allegedly attacked with machetes by thugs outside his Edinburgh home last month. A warning from the gang read: "Since March, more than 40 people have had their houses, businesses and cars torched. The majority of you have left your homes throughout this period. "David McMillan is one of the few who stayed put, albeit he hired 24/7 security to sit outside his home. Look how that worked out... "You have retaliated against us by creating social media accounts, sending fake stories to the papers and burning the odd car. "TMJ have no social media accounts, never have and never will. We will continue to target you on a regular basis for stealing from us." McGill has been waging war on Mark Richardson's crime mob from Edinburgh and the Daniel clan from Glasgow since March after he was ripped off in a £500,000 cocaine deal when the buyer used fake bank notes. Police Scotland have vowed to crackdown on the violence, and have arrested 48 people in connection with Operation Portaledge.

Mob targeted in Edinburgh gang war recruit new enforcer to replace slain gangster
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info A mob caught up in the ongoing Edinburgh gang war have warned they have recruited a new enforcer. A new group calling themselves the "A Team" recently hit back at those orchestrating a series of firebombings and shootings in Edinburgh and Glasgow and laughed-off recent incidents. A number of chilling threats have been issued from the Daniel and Mark Richardson outfit on social media as they say a new enforcer has been recruited to replace slain Kevin "Gerbil" Carroll. Earlier in the week they said "bullets win" and warned retribution was coming the way of Dubai-based gangster Ross McGill who is believed to be behind continuous attacks across the central belt. As the Record reports, the threats have been issued in wake of the double-murder of Eddie Lyons Jnr and Ross Monaghan in Spain. A message from the "A Team" told rival operatives: "You allegedly got rid of this man out of total fear. RIP, Gerbil. He would have terrorised you. A real soldier, like our new friend who has replaced him." In a series of mocking posts they branded former Rangers "ultra" McGill a "keyboard gangster" who was engaged in "school boy" attacks via his TMJ gang. Another message read: "Take your wannabe joke of a clan and come back when you are all man enough to handle stuff like men." Feared Daniels enforcer Kevin "Gerbil" Carroll was gunned down in 2010 as he sat in the back seat of an Audi in the Asda car park in Robroyston. The son-in-law of mobster Jamie Daniel was known for kidnapping and torturing rival drug dealers in attacks dubbed "alien abductions". Ross Monaghan was arrested over the shooting but was acquitted after a judge at the High Court in Glasgow ruled there was insufficient evidence to convict him. William 'Buff' Paterson, 45, was later convicted of the murder in 2015 and sentenced to a minimum of 22 years in prison. Earlier this week the Record revealed around a dozen senior members from the Daniel clan and Richardson mob had fled Scotland. An underworld source said: "Nobody knows exactly where they have gone or how long for but most of them are believed to be in Dubai and the rest are in the Costa del Sol. Join Edinburgh Live's Whatsapp Community here and get the latest news sent straight to your messages "The TMJ gang were watching closely and hoping to catch one of them out in the open but all of a sudden they just upped sticks and left." The move came after Spanish cops blamed the double execution of Lyons Jnr and pal Ross Monaghan on "an internal member of the Daniel gang". Assistant Chief Constable Stuart Houston said: "We have been assisting Spanish colleagues with their investigation into the fatal shootings in Fuengirola. "We are not aware of any current evidence which suggests the deaths of these two men in Spain are linked to the recent criminal attacks in Scotland being investigated as part of Operation Portaledge." Michael Riley, 44, appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court in connection with the shooting in Spain on Thursday. The total number of arrests in connection with the investigation Operation Portaledge is 48.
