AG instructs IGP to transfer DIG Deshabandu Tennakoon
The Attorney General has instructed the IGP to transfer Western Province Senior DIG Deshabandu Tennanakoon with immediate effect to prevent unnecessary intervention into the investigations relating to the attack on peaceful protesters at Temple Trees and Galle Face on May 9.
The CID is currently conducting investigations into the incident under the instructions of the Attorney General. The Attorney General had earlier advised the CID to initiate legal action against 22 persons including ruling party parliamentarians over their alleged involvement with the incident.
On May 19, the Colombo Fort Magistrate criticized the action of the CID for not conducting a proper investigation over the complaints made against Senior DIG Deshabandu Tennakoon. (Lakmal Sooriyagoda)
