No, that's really one of the unanswered questions still.
We really didn't hear any details about that during the hearing yesterday.
We only really heard that police had received information that he was at that property in Thologalong, nothing about how he did get there.
And of course, this is still all part of an ongoing investigation.
But what we do now know as of today is that two people have been arrested as part of Task Force Summit.
Now, that is that task force that was set up following the Paul Punker incident.
to investigate this and they are based up here.
So today, being Tuesday, we know that a 48-year-old man and a 35-year-old man were arrested this morning.
They were arrested at two separate locations in northeast Victoria.
Victoria Police says that they are now being interviewed.
There haven't been any charges.
And they say that the investigation is still ongoing and that they won't provide any more details at the moment.
So we have gone back to them to see if they could tell us whereabouts in the northeast.
These arrests have occurred, but we haven't been able to get those details.
But that is certainly some new information that has come through today about that.
Yeah, that's right.
So we heard yesterday from the council assisting that police received intelligence that Freeman was hiding out at this property in Thologalong.
Now, we know that there was a special unit that had been set up in the aftermath of Paul Punker and they were stationed in the Great Alpine area that consisted of detectives and members of the Special Operations Group.
We didn't know exactly where they were stationed out of, but we do know that they were created to stay here and follow that investigation.
So the details came through in the week before March 30, and then we know that they travelled to Tholagalong on the weekend of the 28th and 29th, and they set up surveillance around that property there.
