He also stressed that the investigation is being conducted in a thorough, transparent and professional manner. “The public is advised not to speculate or disseminate unauthorised information that could affect the investigation and the sensitivity of the case, especially as it involves children,” he said.Logistics sector urges caution in revised testing protocol for lorry brakes
