So where's the trade halt

Call it the Colombo Lies Exchange, the Colombo Jokes Exchange or all it whatever you want but please don't call it the Colombo Stock Exchange for that would be a grave insult to the real stock exchanges elsewhere in the world.

Milanka Price Index down 10%

This is a screenshot of the CSE home page captured at 10:43, it shows the MPI as having fallen by more than 10% so why then haven't we seen trading halt? Because no such thing happened. The MPI certainly was at 4871 but instead of being down 10% it was actually up by 0.2% fortunately they rectified the error quickly. And it doesn't really matter cause the CSE has no shame.
