Washington, March 24 (IANS) US Attorney General William Barr will not send his summary of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report to Congress on Saturday, according to multiple media reports.

Mueller has wrapped up his inquiry into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election and possible coordination with US President Donald Trump’s campaign by submitting a confidential report to Barr on Friday.

Barr is reviewing Mueller’s findings and said previously that he may provide Congress with the "principal conclusions" this weekend.
