Two accomplices of organised criminal ‘Beral Sanka’ have been shot dead on Thursday night at the 9th miles post in Kadawatha on the Colombo-Kandy main Road.
Police said the victims were travelling on a motorcycle when they were gunned down by two shooters with a T56 assault rifle who also arrived on a motorcycle.
The victims, 30 and 31 and residents of Peliyagoda had died upon admission to the Colombo National Hospital.
Police investigations revealed that a rivalry between two underworld gangs is the reason for the shooting.
