January 22, Colombo (LNW): The comprehensive report on the investigation into the human immunoglobulin transaction has been submitted to the Attorney General for legal guidance, marking a crucial step in the investigative process.

In alignment with established legal protocols, the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) will adhere to the directives provided by the Attorney General for the subsequent phases of the investigation.
