We don’t bother about threats to FCID: police



Police Media Spokesman Ruwan Gunasekara said today the threat by UPFA Southern Provincial Council Minister D.V. Upul to stone to death the officers of the FCID when Mahinda Rajapaksa returns to power was of little no concern to them.

He said such threats by politicians of this calibre were of no consequence because the Financial Crime Investigation Department was carrying out its duties in an impartial and professional manner without prejudice or bias.

“He had threatened to stone FCID officers to death. We only consider it as a comment of a politician. Police are not bothered because we have so many other important duties to carry out,” he said with a loud laugh.

Even though no legal action has been taken by the police over the remarks of Mr. Upul, ASP Gunasekara said he would consult Police Chief N.K. Ilangakoon on how best to respond to these threats.(Piyumi Fonseka)
