Danny “DK” Karam was an Australian organised crime figure and drug dealer in Sydney’s Kings Cross during the 1990s and a former militia soldier in Beirut during the Lebanese Civil War. Karam formed his own crew in 1996 called “DKs Boys” with himself as boss selling cocaine on the street and was an extremely violent and dangerous standover man, powerfully built. Danny Karam became both hated and feared by rival figures, surviving attempts on his life, but Karam would also become targeted by his own crew including his lieutenant Michael Kanaan or “Doc” by keeping most of the profits for himself, that greed cost him his life. In 1998, Karam was targeted by his associates, first with a laced hotshot of heroin but when that didn’t work, they gunned down Karam execution-style as he sat in his vehicle outside his Surry Hills residence, Sydney’s inner west. Karam was shot 16 times in the head and chest and was pronounced dead. He left behind a wife and daughter.

Karam was portrayed by actor Dan Mor in the Australian crime drama series Underbelly: The Golden Mile in 2009-2010.
