Prosecutor Shane Drumgold and ACT police say they did not see the contents of the Sofronoff inquiry’s findings before they were leaked to the media.

The independent board of inquiry was established to investigate the ACT criminal justice system’s handling of Bruce Lehrmann’s prosecution for the alleged rape of Brittany Higgins.
