Colombo, Dec 18 (Daily Mirror) – Public Security Minister Tiran Alles alleged that certain lawyers who opposed the appointment of Deshabandu Tennakoon as the Acting Inspector General of Police are now appearing on behalf of cases filed by the court against notorious drug traffickers.

The Minister disclosed that these lawyers are earning billions of rupees from such cases.

Earlier, Minister Alles said that he and the Acting IGP are committed to cracking down on narcotic drugs and the underworld, irrespective of certain objections or pressures.

Accordingly, the Police launched a special island-wide operation yesterday. As a result, over 2,000 suspects have been arrested within a 24-hour period, and a substantial quantity of narcotic drugs seized.
