terraform destroy error - aws_security_group: DependencyViolation: resource sg-XXX has a dependent object

Question

Following Terraform script always returns following error when destroying the infrastructure. Notice that security group "GC-SG-VPC1" is being used in ingress rule in security group "default". During destroy Terraform attempts to delete "GC-SG-VPC1" and fails after multiple retries.

Any suggestions to get around this is much appreciated.
