The New South Wales police commissioner, Mal Lanyon, says he has apologised to Muslim community leaders “for any offence that may have been taken” following an incident at Monday night’s protest in Sydney in which a group of people praying were moved on by police.
The controversial incident, which was shared widely on social media, prompted the premier, Chris Minns, to reject the suggestion it showed police disproportionately targeted the Muslim community. A coalition of Muslim groups has called for Lanyon to resign over the incident.
Yesterday, Lanyon told reporters he had spoken with Muslim community members about the police action, but today he told 2GB he had apologised.
