Attorney General Dappula De Livera today directed the Acting IGP to submit a report within two weeks, after investigating the COVID-19 spread from Brandix.

Accordingly, the AG had provided instructions to DIG Ajith Rohana on creating the report.

Is the AG out,of his mind. He wants the law (Lawyers Police) to probe covid 19 out break from Brandix. Are they qualified health authorities like Doctors and Epidomologists.
