A prominent drug dealer in Peliyagoda, Jayaratnage Gihan Sandaruwan, was arrested by the Police Special Task Force (STF) with drugs and a live hand grenade in his residence at Peliyagoda this evening, police said.

The suspect, a resident of Peliyagoda, is the brother of former UPFA Peliyagoda Urban Councilor Chamila Sandaruwan, who was killed in 2014.

He was identified as the leader of a rival gang of underworld figure ‘D. Manju’, who was killed in a shootout with the STF recently.

It seems more productive and effective to use the infamous WHITE VAN and the SHOT DEAD BY ESCAPING from the Jeep used by the previous govt, cos in Prison cells they will operate and coordinate their underworld thugs by mobile phones in more organised way whislt public pay taxes for their hospitality in Prison.

We should have appointed SF as minister of Justice. He would have fixed all the underworld problems.
