The Community Security Group, a volunteer-led organization, had classified the recent event as high risk, and requested significant police presence throughout its duration, according to reports from nine newspapers.
However, sources revealed that instead of dedicating multiple officers to the event, junior officers were instructed to include the event in their broad patrol of Bondi Beach, checking in intermittently.
Despite the initial concerns, the event concluded peacefully without any incidents of violence.
