The incident happened on the same beach as our main office. We are shocked and horrified at what has happened, but don't want to add to the rumours and speculation until all the facts are known. As with any event on a small island, rumors and gossip are spreading like wildfire, and already in the national and worldwide press there are many reports of what has happened - much of which is currently unfounded or factually incorrect.
Police are investigating the matter and questioning all relevant parties and acquiring CCTV footage to determine whether it was a domestic incident, or involved any outside parties/individuals, but as yet no official release of information. Some information being reported - as with most leaks in incidences such as this, are limited to speculation and are therefore very far from the truth, however. For example news that the piers and ferries have been shut down is not true, so probably best to take everything we 'hear' with a pinch of salt for now, and wait for the official release of information from the authorities once they have conducted their investigation.
It is however, a tragic and very sad time for the island and its inhabitants, and of course primarily for the families and friends of those involved. RIP to the 2 souls involved.
