The official pistol and mobile phone of the Army Major who was injured due to an alleged assault by Malaka Silva had been handed over to the Slave Island Police Station by the driver of Mr. Silva, police said. They also said that they were conducting investigations to arrest Malaka Silva and six others who had been clad in uniforms similar to the Ministerial Security Division (MSD).

Police Spokesman Ajith Rohana said Malaka’s driver had told police that the pistol and the mobile phone of the Intelligence Unit Army Major had been found on the floor of the Jaic Hilton premises where the incident took place.

Slave Island Police have launched an investigation according to the complaint made by the victim Army Intelligence Officer that his pistol, mobile phone and gold chain were snatched by Malaka Silva and former Minister Mano Wijeratne’s son after assaulting him.

The Army Major, who was at the National Hospital, was transferred to the military hospital yesterday.(Srinath Prasanna Jayasuriya and Indika Ramanayake)

Police should have had arrested Malakas' driver then and there, when he brought the stuff to the Police Station. That was the right procedure.
The IGP should take immediate action against the OIC of the Slave island Police Station.

These thugs and their offspring thugs cannot be punished for their crimes because of their connections to powerful politicians. The only way to eliminate them is for a VIGILANTE movement to be created to deal with such thugs. The VIGILANTE movement can comprise of ex Military personnel who are trained to catch terrorists - which will make their task easier to catch these petty thugs who must be hiding under their parents' sarongs by now. They must be hounded and exterminated from our society. They are a cancer in our society - and the peace loving Sri Lankan public cannot take their nonsense anymore.

So please dont put the blame on our Hon Minister's son because he will not do such dirty work.
