Seven people have been arrested as the manhunt continues for a Top End Mongols bikie who scaled an enclosed courthouse dock and escaped from custody last week.
The ABC's CCTV footage captured the 44-year-old sprinting out of the courthouse entrance and running down Cavenagh Street in the city's CBD, with two privately contracted security guards chasing him.
In a statement, NT Police said the Fugitive Taskforce "tracked" Mr Graham to multiple locations across Darwin "where he is believed to have actively evaded police with the assistance of known associates".
Since his escape last week, seven people known to the bikie have been arrested over outstanding warrants, breach of bail and drug-related offences.
A 25-year-old woman remains in custody and is accused of helping Mr Graham.
It remains unclear if the six others have been released without charge.
Detective Sergeant Tim Healey said authorities remain "determined" to find Mr Graham.
"Information provided by members of the public has enabled investigators to continue following every lead, and we will find Mr Graham," Sergeant Healey said.
"We are warning anyone who is assisting Graham to evade police to stop immediately.
"If you choose to help him avoid arrest, you can expect to be identified, investigated and prosecuted."
Court documents previously obtained by the ABC reveal Mr Graham is a patched member of the outlaw motorcycle gang, the Mongols.
At the time, Mr Graham was applying for bail over drugs and weapons charges.
Police believe he remains in the Greater Darwin region.
Mr Graham is described as being Caucasian in appearance and approximately 185 centimetres tall with a medium build, long brown hair and a short beard.
He also as a tattoo on his left wrist and was last seen wearing a dark-coloured T-shirt.
Anyone who sees the man or has information about where he may be is urged not to approach him and to call triple-zero (000).
