The ACT Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has been quizzed in an inquiry about why he sought to prevent the release of a police report which raised concerns about the details of Brittany Higgins's rape allegation against Bruce Lehrmann.
The Board of Inquiry, led by former Queensland Judge Walter Sofronoff, is looking into the conduct of prosecutors, police and the ACT Victims of Crime Commissioner during the prosecution of Mr Lehrmann.
Mr Lehrmann's trial was abandoned and there are no findings against him — he maintains his innocence.
The inquiry was set up after the DPP, Shane Drumgold, raised concerns he had been pressured by police not to pursue the charge against Mr Lehrmann.
