“Two o’clock in the morning, we get a call. We started to mobilise; I spoke to (Inspector Ishmael) Pitt, and I spoke to an officer, who then started to coordinate. We started to move, we went to the ground, we blocked certain entrances, and as a result of that, that came about... We intend to take some drastic, listen to the words, you know, drastic measures against persons who attempt that going forward after today,” Alexander said.
