The Police Minister says the wheel of justice is turning too slowly following a major seizure of gang assets.

After a 10 year investigation and court process, the Head Hunters gang is being ordered to forfeit $15 million in properties and assets.

It's being marked as a major win for Police, but some are criticizing the length of time it's taken to happen.

Mark Mitchell told Mike Hosking the court's ruling sends a clear message to gangs, but could have happened quicker.

Labour’s Ginny Andersen said that the recent legislative change that flips the onus onto the gang members to prove their acquisitions were legal makes it easier for Police to seize assets.
