Frickie Van Hardenburg

Frickie Van Hardenburg.

Frickie Van Hardenburg is a character featured in The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Frickie was said to be a "controversial African" (presumably South African) who was accused of financing conflicts and a string of humanitarian crimes. He had also been linked to weapons smuggling, gem dealing, the slave trade, and drugs; all allegations which he strongly denied.

Frickie was in possession of a Buzzard helicopter, which was stolen from his yacht by Luis Lopez on Yusuf Amir's orders. After the helicopter had been stolen, Luis was told to use the missiles on the chopper to sink the yacht. Frickie and his private army died in the yacht explosion, and the speed boat chase following the yacht's sinking. He can be briefly seen giving a speech about the Buzzard to his guests in the lounge room, however if you go into the lounge room, he won't be there. He dies in the explosion nonetheless.
