The Inter-University Students Federation (IUSF) Convener Wasantha Mudalige alleged that the police had a plan to kill him while he was in police custody.
He told a news conference that he was taken to a secluded place, blindfolded with a cloth, by the river close to the Nawagamuwa Devalaya. He revealed that one of the officers said over the phone that "Sir, we came to the place. What should we do now?"
He said, having seen a police officer stationed for the security of the Devala, he was taken back in a vehicle.
He said , according to the script, they were not to be released in this manner and said the government wanted to either kill them or imprison them for many years.
