the article stated the gates were closed early for heavy security reasons (VIP or an heir to the throne was inside).
I don't quite agree with their reasoning.Moreover, it's very inappropriate of them to say that "they were happy of what they did". And to add insult to injury, they were blaming the people for not coming early despite their "encouragement". Tsk. What a bummer!
