Former Canberra bikie boss Mohammed Nchouki charged with concealing evidence, perverting course of justice

Builder Mohammed Nchouki, 40, was arrested at Canberra Airport on Sunday.

He faced the ACT Magistrates Court on Monday, charged with being an accessory after the fact, destroying or concealing evidence, giving false or misleading information and perverting the course of justice.

In documents tendered to the court, police allege Mr Nchouki's employee and co-accused Mark Robinson was driving a car, which had been leant to Mr Nchouki by his parents-in-law, about 1am on November 22.

Police allege Mr Robinson was driving dangerously and sped away from officers before he left the car in McKellar and fled on foot.

According to court documents, police had a warrant to tap Mr Nchouki's phone and several calls across the night allegedly revealed the men had conspired to mislead police.

In a conversation just after 1.30am, police allege Mr Nchouki told Mr Robinson to "come up with a good story" and pretend the car had been stolen.

"Like it was parked at like f---ing your place or something and some little c--- pinched it ... that's if they ask," he said.

Mr Nchouki said he "wanted to get on the front foot" before police tracked down the car's owner, Mr Nchouki's father-in-law.

He said they needed to "come up with a f---ing story" and allegedly planned to tell officers the car had been taken and he didn't know who was behind the wheel at the time of the chase.

"Just send me the name and details of some c--- and I'll just say it was parked out the front of their house. That's it, must have been jacked as far as you know," Mr Nchouki said.

According to a recorded conversation, Mr Nchouki told his alleged co-offender to take the car to Chisholm and remove the number plates.

"Leave straight away as the cops will probably be there soon. Take plates [off] and leave screws on the ground so I can say that plates were taken there," Mr Nchouki texted.

Police eventually went to Mr Nchouki's house, where they allege he said "he had 35 guys working for him and that any one of them could have been using it". He later signed a written statement saying that he couldn't identify the driver of the car at the time.

Prosecutor Trent Hickey opposed Mr Nchouki's application for bail on Monday, saying there was a risk he would interfere with the co-accused and his in-laws, who owned the car and had not yet given police statements.

Mr Hickey also said the former Canberra Nomads president had been on parole until June for drug trafficking and firearm charges.

Magistrate Louise Taylor granted Mr Nchouki bail on the condition he have no contact with his in-laws or Mr Robinson.

She said Mr Nchouki's legal representative could apply to change that condition once his in-laws had given police statements.

He will next appear in court on January 18. No pleas have been entered.
