The Hon. Dayasiri Jayasekara, Attorney-at-Law
Dayasiri Jayasekara questioned the police search of former IGP Deshabandu Tennakoon’s residence, stating that officers failed to locate him after three and a half hours and instead left with whisky bottles. He cited televised remarks by Sunil Watawala claiming knowledge of the whereabouts of Deshabandu Tennakoon and Sevwanthi, and asked who was responsible for concealing them.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 For three and a half hours, police searched the IGP—let’s say IGP—Deshabandu Tennakoon’s house. After three and a half hours they could not find him, then left with whisky bottles. Mr. Sunil Watawala clearly said on TV he knows where Deshabandu is and where Sevwanthi is. Who is the leader hiding all this?
