Collins Gang War

The Collins Gang, also known as the Collins Crew, was a British crime firm based in the Soho area of London, England. The gang was formed in the 1980s by Nick Collins, and was involved in a large-scale gang war in October 2002 with the Bethnal Green Mob, the 14K Triads and the Yardies which culminated in the deaths of several gang members aboard the Sol Vita including Nick Collins, whose brother Jimmer Collins took over the gang shortly thereafter. By 2004, most of the gang's remaining members were eliminated by the Russian Mafia which effectively destroyed the Collins Gang.

The Collins Gang previously had a hangout at a bar called Republic in Soho. The bar was set on fire by former gang member Mark Hammond on the orders of Charlie Jolson but was later renovated in 2004.
