Mahmoud Brownie Ahmad Biography
Who was Mahmoud Brownie Ahmad ?
A man has been charged for his alleged role in the deadly shooting of underworld crime boss Mahmoud ‘Brownie’ Ahmad.
Detectives from the NSW Homicide Squad arrested the 49-year-old man during a police operation in Campsie, south-west of Sydney, on May 2.
He has been charged with one count of accessory to murder and accessory to murder, among other crimes.
Following the arrest, officers executed a search warrant at a home in Wetherill Park, where they seized 25kg of ice worth an estimated $22 million.
Officers also seized $200,000 in cash and cloned license plates.
Police will allege in court that he was involved in planning Brownie’s death with the man who was due to appear in the local Fairfield court on July 6.
Arrested and Charged
The 49-year-old man was also charged with various drug-related offenses and criminal groups.
Ahmad, also known as Sydney’s ‘Mr Big’, was shot dead on a suburban street in Greenacre, in the city’s southwest, on April 27.
Raptor Squad police patrolling nearby performed CPR on a vision of the harrowing scene showing ‘Mr Big’ fighting for his life, but they were unable to revive him.
Friends of the slain underworld boss, who had a $1 million bounty on his head, and detectives said they weren’t surprised by his gruesome death.

He had been repeatedly warned that he was a marked man when he was released from jail after six months for a five-year sentence for killing a rival gangster.
Ahmad had extorted underworld figures both inside and outside the prison, demanding that at least one inmate pay $250,000 to ensure his safety.
“He was warned in the past that he was a marked man and as a result he paid no heed to those words … he was going about his normal business without a care in the world,” said Detective Superintendent Danny Doherty.
Last October, Ahmad fended off another attempt when police tipped him off about a planned hit on him in broad daylight at a park in Rushcutters Bay.
Sydney’s warring gang conflict has claimed 14 lives in two years, with state opposition claiming there have been at least 35 major violent incidents involving gangs in NSW since June 2020.
The executions come as police are given new powers to arrest convicted drug dealers anytime, anywhere, without the need for a warrant.
Unprecedented NSW laws also allow police to search them on the street, break down their doors, as well as search their homes, businesses and vehicles.
The new legislation, two years in the making, will be tested in four areas of New South Wales, including Bankstown in south-west Sydney, as gang warfare in the city intensifies.
