NSW police minister David Elliott has slammed a group of residents from Sydney s Northern Beaches who blatantly flouted coronavirus lockdown rules to attend a wedding reception.
Twelve residents aged between 19 and 63 were fined after leaving the city s northern peninsula to attend a reception in inner-city Pyrmont on Sunday, despite being banned from leaving the region since the Covid-19 outbreak began spreading on December 16.
A furious police minister had no sympathy for the wedding guests busted breaching lockdown. It s just a bastard act, Mr Elliott told the Today Show on Tuesday. You have been living in an area where there has been a cluster . and now everyone at that wedding has to worry if they have been exposed to COVID-19.
