Ex-President had mis-used public hard earned money and enjoyed a luxury life cheating the masses.

Good idea, may be some more Govt. assets would have dumped all over the country. IGP please implement a system to trace all the other vehicles too.

This type of articles should be published in Sinhalese News Papers as well, for the general public to know. Who could be held responsible for this?

Just imagine what would have happened if that regime continued to be in power. Early election was a blessing to our country so that we could defeat the corrupted regime. National media also hide these corruptted people and showed us a total fault picture. when I feel we were cheated by that government I need them to have a humiliating defeat in the coming general election cos thats only way public can punish them.

Issue a public notice requesting all concern to inform nearest police station or to a dedicated telephone line in case of finding such suspected government vehicles.
