Part 4/8:
With the violence spiraling out of control, law enforcement has initiated counter-offensives, including a top-secret Australian Federal Police operation dubbed Operation Kraken. This meticulously planned operation succeeded in uncovering encrypted communications within the criminal underworld—a key to understanding the operational dynamics behind the violence.
Assistant Commissioner Kirsty Scoffield, part of the operation, revealed that they uncovered about 50 threats to life, revealing a chilling network of communication among gang members. The operational focus is not merely on the prevention of violence but also on pulling the threads of criminal communications to limit the orchestrated chaos of gang wars.
