Posted July 4, 2009 17:09:00

A third alleged member of the Comanchero bikie gang has faced court over a fatal brawl at Sydney Airport in March.

Farres Abounader, 28, was arrested on Friday and appeared at Parramatta Bail Court this morning charged with riot and not disclosing the identity of a driver or passenger.

His lawyer asked for an adjournment and Abounader will now face court on Tuesday.

Earlier in the week police arrested and charged Comanchero boss Mick Hawi with murder in relation to the brawl that claimed the life of Hells Angels associate Anthony Zervas.
