Tourists were told there was ‘nothing to worry about’, Annie Yongan Lu tells New Zealand court
Guides never mentioned any potential dangers regarding a possible volcanic eruption until tourists were on New Zealand’s Whakaari/White Island, the first Australian witness has told a court hearing a landmark case on the deadly 2019 disaster.
The Auckland district court on Thursday began its third day of hearings for a prosecution brought by New Zealand’s labour inspectorate relating to the eruption, which resulted in the deaths of 22 people, including 14 Australians.
