The restriction tape to cordon off the area was lying ripped on the ground.

SCC Special Administrators Chair, Isikeli Tikoduadua, says they’re deeply concerned with what happened and an investigation is underway to determine how these people entered the cordoned of premise.

Tikoduadua is urging the public to be responsible and strictly follow the current COVID-19 safety procedures in place.

He is expected to provide further details soon.
