Coming to Rest on the Even Shtiya

The Even Shtiya, the Foundation Stone, is at the heart of the Temple Mount, where the Altar rested, inside the Holy of Holies.

Today, what rest there are pails, ropes, scaffolding and other building materials.  And a shoe.

In the reply of the police to the complaint submitted as to a law violation in that the site was desecrated, the police claim that the Even Shtiya is not affected (see para. 4 here).

Are the police lying? prevaricating? not being fully truthful?
