The CID informed court that the CCTV footage covers an area from the Laugfs supermarket and the scene of the crime on May 17, 2015.

The CID also sought an order from court to obtain a report from Sri Lanka Computer Emergency Readiness Team on the identity of the person in the video footage who was wearing a T-shirt with English letters. Court issued an order to Lanka Computer Emergency Readiness Team’s Chief Executive Officer Lal Dias to provide a comprehensive analysis report on the identity of the person and the vehicle in the video footage.
