Credit: Spindrift 5 The mob dubbed Tamo Junto have claimed responsibility for a wave of attacks 5 Mark Richardson's associates have been targeted by marauding hoods. 5 Three thugs were filmed bursting into a home on Saturday. But the desert-based hood said to be orchestrating a wave of attacks on Daniel associates and anyone with ties to crime kingpin Mark Richardson, 38, isn't for talking. Claims of a truce bid emerged as three thugs were filmed bursting into an Edinburgh home in a sickening daylight raid on a pal of Richardson's. It's the latest in a relentless campaign of violence that was sparked amid claims of a dodgy cocaine deal that infuriated the Dubai gang boss and former Union Bears ultra who is on the run from Scots cops. An insider said: 'Bonzo has reached out a few times looking to call for peace. 'Bonzo has tried to contact him through a few different people since this has started. 'He's never spoken to him directly on the phone about it. 'But the Dubai guy has made it clear he is not interested because he thinks Bonzo was aware of the dodgy drug deal 'He's also said that if Bonzo wants to use Richardson's name to people for protection then he's involved in anything that Mark and his mates do. 'Bonzo is denying any involvement in the robbery and is saying his family have nothing to do with it. 'A lot of his relatives have no involvement in crime and can't understand why they have been targeted.' Explosive Edinburgh gang turf war battles blitzed by armed cops as police try to take control of conflict We told earlier how sick mobsters smashed their way into a home in the latest attack linked to Scotland's relentless gangland turf war. Three armed thugs were filmed breaking into the house in Edinburgh thought to be connected to pal of crime kingpin Richardson. Cops today confirmed they are probing the terrifying rain which happened at 6pm on Saturday. A video of the brazen assault has been circulated and includes the dance track Find You by German producer and DJ Zedd. The masked trio pounced in the Niddrie area with one seen battering the door with what looks like a hammer while others burst their way into the house through the living room window. A source said: 'This gang war is showing no sign of stopping and this latest attack shows what lengths these people are willing to go to.' A Police Scotland spokesperson said: 'We were made aware of entry being forced to a property at Campion Road in Edinburgh shortly before 6pm on Saturday. 'Damage was caused to windows and items inside the house. No one was injured. 'Enquiries are ongoing.' 5 Detective Chief Superintendent Dave Ferry has pledged to snare gang war culprits. The war has been raging for more than two months and cops have nabbed 32 people over firebombings, shootings and murder plots allegedly linked to the chaos.

"We're working tirelessly to build cases and are following a number of significant lines of inquiry.'

Three armed thugs were filmed breaking into the house in Edinburgh thought to be connected to pal of crime kingpin Mark Richardson. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Campion Road, Edinburgh - Gang violence 6 The video shows thugs target the window and door of the property 6 And it appears they eventually gain entry A video of the brazen assault has been circulated and includes the dance track Find You by German producer and DJ Zedd. The masked trio pounced on Saturday in Niddrie with one seen battering the door with what looks like a hammer while others burst their way into the house through the living room window. A source said: 'This gang war is showing no sign of stopping and this latest attack shows what lengths these people are willing to go to. 'It's hard to imagine anything as terrifying as three armed thuss bursting into your home like that. 'It's absolutely shocking to see and the fear is someone will get killed before it gets stopped.' The sinister clip ends with the logo used by a group known as Tamo Junto said to be headed up by a Dubai-based fugitive out for revenge over a dodgy drug deal. The Scot has teamed up with other mobsters at home and abroad to target Richardson's associates and anyone with ties to Glasgow's notorious Daniel clan. The war has been raging for more than two months and cops have nabbed 32 people over firebombings, shootings and murder plots allegedly linked to the chaos. Sources say the latest house was targeted because the homeowner is connected to Richardson, 37, who is in isolation at HMP Addiewell. It's not clear if anyone was at home when the gang forced entry while an associate filmed the terrifying ordeal from a getaway car. Moment Counter Terroriam cops destroy front window as they force their way into suspects home It comes days after another maniac mobster was filmed fleeing the scene of a brazen gangland firebomb attack in the capital. The chilling clip emerged as cops nicked three men over separate alleged murder plots linked to a crime clans' turf war. An associate filmed the hooded arsonist as he bolted after setting a car ablaze outside the home of David McMillan, 54 - a pal of jailed Richardson. Flames could be seen rippling around the tyres of the white Range Rover parked in the driveway of a plush property in Edinburgh. 6 The TMJ badge has appeared at the end of a number of gang war videos 6 Mark Richardson Credit: THE SCOTTISH SUN On Friday armed cops from Police Scotland's Organised Crime and Counter Terrorism Unit were pictured bursting their way into properties in the Glasgow area in a series of dramatic swoops. Two men, aged 31 and 26, were arrested over a conspiracy to murder plot and directing organised crime, while a 36-year-old man was lifted over a kill plot rap. A man aged 26 was arrested over alleged drug offences and a 57-year-old man was nabbed on a proceeds-of-crime rap. Another man, 42, was nabbed in Wishaw for alleged involvement in organised crime. They are all due to appear in court on Monday. Detective Chief Superintendent David Ferry said: "While the number of incidents has continued to decrease since the start of this investigation, I want to reiterate that violence will not stop until we bring those responsible for this criminality to justice. "We're working tirelessly to build cases and are following a number of significant lines of inquiry.' We told how a taxi firm, Deuce Private Hire in Stepps, on the outskirts of Glasgow, was torched on Wednesday amid claims it is linked to the gang war. Underworld sources claim a Scots fugitive known as Miami is in cahoots with other hoods with links to the Lyons gang - who are longstanding enemies of the Daniels.
