Police Media Spokesman Ruwan Gunasekara said they are yet to receive a report from the investigative team sent to the UAE in the backdrop of news reports that was circulating with regards to a claim alleged to have been made by former ambassador to Russia Udayanga Weeratunga that he had been released for lack of evidence.

The special investigation team was sent to the UAE to hold discussions with authorities there over the possibility of extraditing the former envoy. “We can't comment on the claim made by Mr. Weeratunga as of yet,” he said.

Sir, We don't know what has happened to Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan media has been reporting for the last four five days that team of officers were going to Dubai. While some media reported that officers have already gone,another media reported officers could not get visas. However, we know one thing that our authorities are really lethargic in taking action. In this particular case,by the time our officers arrived at the destination,investigation was already over and accused was released.In Sri Lanka from top to bottom everything happening like this. Shame on us.

Yes the Sri Lankan police force is unaware of all the things happening around them.So its not a surprise that the spokesman himself does not know whats happening. Better to go and do some meditation like your boss.

It is very sad to note that under the present regime None is responsible nor accountable to even grave mistakes so far. Only democracy and that too has gone to dogs.

Poor investigation by the Sri Lanka police and prosecutors. Had good evidence and findings been available, Interpol would have issued an international arrest warrant and not just a Inquiry warrant for the stay of a person.

Still no news from the first team or the second team!I think they should IMMEDIATELY dispatch a 3rd team and keep a fourth team stand by!
