A Sub Inspector (SI) attached to the Embilipitiya Police Station had been arrested by the Colombo Crimes Division (CCD) last night for allegedly fabricating evidence with former CID Director Shani Abeysekara, Police Spokesman Jaliya Senaratna said.

He said the SI, who was a Sergeant of the CID when Shani Abeysekara functioning as the Director CID, was arrested at the CCD last night after recording statement over fabricating evidence over a firearms case.

Earlier, the CCD arrested former CID Director Shani Abeysekara over allegations that he fabricated evidence in a 2013 murder investigation involving former DIG Vaas Gunawardena. He was later remanded till 7 August by the Gampaha Magistrate.

The Spokesman said the SI, a resident of Poddala would be produced in the Gampaha Magistrate’s Court today.

Simply said, investigators should investigate issues that do not implicate the Governing Party of that time. The hero's of the CID become zero's whenever the other party comes into power. Where is this nation heading and what is the stand on this of the citizens. Use your vote correctly.

A correct comment. But it has never been as bad and cruel as the Great Military Dictator and War Criminal in his vengeance treats first-class investigators who have uncovered the crimes of the Rajapaksa Mafia clan. I keep asking myself how cops who have sworn an oath to the Constitution can carry out this criminal's unlawful orders.

Everyone knows that Gota is an uneducated blood thirsty murderer, who’ll spare no one regardless of race and religion. Such a temperamental unsuitable human being at the helm what else do you expect? Shani was one of the shining lights of Srilanka and Gota is sure to get rid of him. But there’s no winners, Karma will take care of it.

This is a dangerous trend. If the public vote them to power that will be the end of our little island and all can be slaves to the bosses who govern

We can't see any link to Gota here, the conspiracy to kill Shiyam proved without any doubt, bass and others punished for it ,so why Shani wanted to fabricate a case of hidden weapons against Vass
