Gangsters' paradise
Article Abstract:
Port Keats in Australia's northern territory is turning out to be a dangerous place to stay in specially for the Aborigines who are being hounded by gangs using heavy metal music and engaging in tribal warfare and there are many who fear a violent backlash from the oppressed. The gangs were tolerated for long since each of the gangs were in some way or the other connected to one of the twenty clans in the area but despite a police presence and a strong church influence the area is traumatized by the gangs.
