Dr. Shafi Sihabdeen, who was recently acquitted of all charges related to illegal sterilisation surgeries, today (07) lodged a complaint with the Ministry of Public Security.
The complaint addresses his 2019 arrest and subsequent detention, which he alleges were based on politically motivated, false accusations.
Speaking to the media after lodging the complaint, Dr. Sihabdeen stated that he lodged the complaint to help prevent similar cases of wrongful accusations from impacting others in the future.
Dr. Shafi had faced accusations of amassing assets through suspicious means, conducting illegal sterilisation surgeries and maintaining alleged links to terrorist activities. After a lengthy legal battle, the court ruled in his favour, clearing him of all allegations.
