“I am truly and deeply sorry. I hope I can earn your forgiveness and,in time,your trust.”
Victoria Police confirmed they were “making enquiries” into the actions captured in the footage.
“Victoria Police is aware of a video currently on social media depicting a gathering of people and alleged illicit drug use,” a media spokesman said.
