NCD Metropolitan Police Commander Ben Turi says that the unit did nothing wrong, saying they were not armed.
Turi says that the officers in the reserve unit did not carry firearms and were wrongly blamed previously.
He set the record straight adding that the reservists are vital to help them with manpower to keep law and order in the city.
Turi says that if they had any arms then it would be the pump action shotguns that would result in pellets being fired.
