00:08I'll effin' burn your house down and kill your kids.
00:12Those are the alleged words that left a crane operator fearing for his family after a confrontation
00:18with members of the bikey gang Comancheros at a Brisbane construction site.
00:22The Queensland CFMEU inquiry heard Cody Raymond was allegedly confronted by former Comancheros
00:29president Bermia Benji Sirachovic and two other gang members at the Centenary Bridge Upgrade
00:35Project in June 2024.
00:38Mr Raymond alleged Sirachovic told him he had been sent from Melbourne to deal with him
00:44before making the threat.
00:46Vision also shows a CFMEU member being refused access to a site.
00:53I understand you've got a 117 you want to issue?
00:56Yeah, absolutely.
01:00I'll give you that one.
01:02I'll just show you my permits.
01:05I don't want to see those at this point in time.
01:11Thank you for that.
01:12I'm not accepting that on the grounds that it's not detailed enough.
01:16So you're saying that you're not going to let us enter the site?
01:19Correct.
01:19Yep.
01:20Is there a reason for that?
01:22Yes.
01:22What's the reason?
01:23You don't have grounds.
01:25You don't have grounds?
01:26What are the grounds that we don't have?
01:28Because you're the face right now for hindering and obstructing.
01:34Oh, actually off the grounds?
01:35Yeah.
01:36Really?
01:36Yeah.
01:37You've got to be outside the gate.
01:39The inquiry continues.
01:42Yeah, not great.
01:43We're now being walked off or trespassed.
01:49Yeah.
01:51Yep.
01:54So they're saying that they're not accepting the 117.
01:57They're not specific enough and we don't have grounds to be here.
