(This is a slang/colloquial word I continuously come upon in media and various articles about crime-related news, however it does not seem to be referenced in major dictionaries such as Goo, Weblio, Kokugo Jiten Online, etc. It is in various 暴力団用語 sites and queries, however. I'm unsure if the references cited are official enough to include in JDICT, but I wanted to try submitting. Thank you.
