The ADGP confirmed that the initial request to hold the event at Light House Raundana was rejected due to the potential safety risks, particularly given the location’s proximity to a petrol pump and a bridge. The ADGP acknowledged the investigation into crowd management violations. He added that the chosen venue had previously hosted a political event with a similar crowd size without incident.
