A former Finks motorcycle gang member Kahan Umit was brutally beaten and stabbed by two motorcycle gang members.

32-year-old Umit was stabbed and punched during a brutal assault in Dandenong, Melbourne last year in March weeks after having removed himself from the Finks motorcycle gang.

The ex-fink member was approached and confronted by four men, including 48-year-old Lee Martin and 32-year-old Joseph Muratore outside a factory when the assault took place.

Following the attack, Umit was left on his own bleeding on the ground with life threatening injuries, as the perpetrators fled the scene.

Emergency surgery was performed at the Alfred Hospital in order to desperately repair his spine and rib fractures, and a punctured lung from the stabbing.
