Sydney Gang War Spills Into Vietnam as Coconut Cartel Figure Killed in Targeted Hit

#gridsparta #bikies #coconutcartel The killing of Lorenzo Lemalu, 24, in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, is being treated as a suspected targeted underworld hit with possible links to Sydney’s escalating gang conflict. Lemalu, a senior figure linked to Sydney’s Coconut Cartel and previously associated with the Proper 60 crew, was shot multiple times outside the Royal Seafood Restaurant in Ben Thanh on May 21 at around 10.15pm. Another associate was also reportedly injured. Footage widely shared across social media captured the close range attack, showing a gunman calmly approaching the group before opening fire and fleeing the scene. Authorities believe at least two offenders were involved and remain on the run. Lemalu, also known as “Lems” or “Renzo,” had strong ties to western Sydney and was believed to have been operating overseas in recent years, with reported sightings in Dubai and Albania. His death has raised concerns that Sydney’s organised crime violence is no longer confined to Australia and is now extending internationally. Following the shooting, Vietnamese police issued an urgent wanted notice for two Australian nationals, Lang Kenny Trong Minh Do, 36, and White Justin John, 39, who are wanted in connection with the case. Authorities believe the pair travelled by taxi before disappearing, with their current whereabouts unknown. Police have described them as dangerous and urged the public not to approach them. Investigators continue to treat the case as part of a broader organised crime conflict involving rival networks, retaliatory attacks, and overseas coordination. With tensions between rival groups already high, authorities are closely monitoring the risk of further retaliation both overseas and back in Australia.
