I don’t agree with the Police action – Kanchana
State Minister for Tea Industry Development Kanchana Wijesekera said that although the President and the government were on the right track, the Police and their investigations are on the wrong track.
“I do not agree with the Police actions,” State Minister Wijesekera tweeted.
“President and Govt on the right track but sadly the Police and Investigations are on the wrong track. There are multiple members with clear evidence of misusing public funds and corruption that the police and AGs Dep can go after. I do not agree with the Police actions!,” he tweeted.

Dear Kanchana, if you are referring to the arrest of Ranjan R’s arrest for having a pistol without a valid permit, I don’t see what wrong the police have done – especially given that we don’t know the genesis of this event. Sri Lanka is still awash with unauthorized firearms (even after 10 years of ending the war) and we sill see almost daily the carnage results of it. True there are all kinds of other criminals freely roaming about too (such as the Bond Scammers) and they too must be arrested and prosecuted, but that does not mean the police should turn a blind eye when wrongdoing is discovered.
