Regulation 9-A: The Sanctity of the Evidence Bag Magical artifacts seized during an investigation must be placed immediately into a Lead-Lined Stasis Pouch. Failure to do so can result in 'Aetheric Cross-Contamination,' potentially altering the physical properties of the evidence or the investigating officer's fingerprints.
