The Police arrested three suspects from the Akmeemana area in connection with the killing of four youth this morning, the police said.

The bodies of four youth were found in a culvert after being shot and hacked to death by a rival underworld gang in the Poddala area in Galle early.

Police believe the killing was linked to the on October 25 killing of Kumara Senerviratne who was hacked to death in the Galle town allegedly by the victims.

The four bodies were found near by-road leading to a tea estate and the Poddala- Galle main road. The bodies were found lying on top of each other with their hands and legs bound. They were also blindfolded.

Police Headquarters said the four victims were wanted over the death of Kumara Senerviratne and also for taking away his gold chain.

48-year-old Senerviratne was the brother of slain Galle Municipal Council Opposition Leader Dushyantha Senerviratne who was killed in 2009 by an underworld gang. (Supun Dias)
