So what does this mean for gox users? will anyone be getting their money back if something happens? or nothing because its bitcoins?

  Wow, I'm really impressed! Didn't think this needs an official announcement.

BTW, who decides what a competent authority is?

Most likely they mean digital forensics.  It could be some time before anything is uncovered.
