Police have executed a warrant at a Hells Angels Outlaw Motor Cycle Gang (OMCG) club house in Thomastown this morning as part of their investigation into the suspicious disappearance of Adelaide man Kerry Giakoumis.
A number of searches of the Jacksons Creek area in Diggers Rest have been conducted this month in an effort to locate Kerry's remains.
This follows information that was provided to police in relation to the investigation.
At this stage, Kerry's body is yet to be located.
The 29-year-old was last seen at the Hells Angels club house on Lipton Drive, Thomastown in the early hours of Wednesday, 10 June 2020.
Kerry had travelled from Adelaide to Melbourne on 5 June, 2020 with two associates who police believe are members of the OMCG.
Kerry had told family that he intended to work here as a concreter.
It's understood that Kerry was not a patched member of the Hells Angels OMCG.
Whilst in Melbourne, Kerry regularly spoke with his family in South Australia and his mother had booked a flight for Wednesday, 10 June 2020 for him to return home on.
Kerry didn't board the flight and contact with his family ceased.
They subsequently reported him missing to police, and his disappearance continues to be treated as suspicious.
A taskforce has been established to investigate Kerry's disappearance and suspected murder.
This includes officers from the Homicide Squad, Echo Taskforce and Missing Persons Squad.
Investigators from the taskforce are also working closely with South Australia Police to investigate a number of avenues of enquiry within Adelaide.
Detectives still believe it is likely some kind of dispute has taken place on the night Kerry was last seen and that may be connected to other members or associates of the Hells Angels OMCG.
In June last year, detectives from the Homicide Squad and Echo Taskforce executed warrants at several properties including the Thomastown clubhouse.
A number of public appeals have also been made since Kerry's disappearance last year and investigators are again asking for anyone with information to come forward.
Detectives are particularly keen to speak to anyone who has information about what happened at the clubhouse or any other location in the early hours of 10 June.
They would also like to hear from anyone who noticed any suspicious activity in the Jackson's Creek area around the time Kerry went missing.
Police have released a new image of a man they are trying to identify as part of this appeal.
This man was seen in a group of men who were in company with Kerry on the night of his disappearance.
Investigators are also re-releasing a number of images of Kerry.
Anyone with information about Kerry's disappearance is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
