A former member of the Hells Angels was paid $3 million and given immunity, in exchange for acting as a witness for Quebec provincial police, a Radio-Canada investigation has discovered.

The information Sylvain Boulanger gave to police led to more than 150 arrests during Operation SharQc in 2009.

After being a member of the biker gang for 20 years, Boulanger left the Angels' Sherbrooke, Que., chapter in 2006, after being approached by provincial police.

He spent the next three years detailing the murders, attempted murders and other crimes committed by his former associates.
