The Hon. Sujeewa Dissanayake
Hon. Sujeewa Dissanayake raised security concerns regarding the Wariyapola Remand Prison, which is located within a village and receives inmates and visitors from across the North-western Province. He asked the Minister whether steps would be taken to establish at least a police post in the area in response to residents’ requests.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Minister, my first supplementary is this. The Wariyapola Remand Prison is located in the middle of a village, about 1.5 km inside from the main road. Inmates from many parts of the North-western Province are brought and held there. Visitors travel through the village, creating a significant security concern. The residents request at least a police post to mitigate this. Will you take steps accordingly?
