A number of telephone conversations had been exchanged between the former SAITM CEO Dr. Sameera Senaratne and a Kotikawatte Mulleriyawa Pradeshiya Sabha member who was the alleged main suspect in the shooting incident in Malabe, police investigations have revealed.

Earlier, the police said Dr. Senaratne allegedly staged the shooting which took place in Malabe to falsely portray that his life was in danger.

They said the Pradeshiya Sabha member and the Dr. Senaratne had close connections and according to investigations they had made a number of telephone conversations prior to the shooting and also after the incident.

Several police teams had been deployed across the country to arrest the Pradeshiya Sabha member and a driver of the Pradeshiya Sabha who are absconding. Police believed the duo had planned and executed the shooting.

Police on Monday arrested a resident of Embilipitiya in connection with the incident recovered a 9mm pistol, a 3.8 revolver and a motorcycle, reportedly used in the shooting incident.

Dr. Senaratne was also questioned at length regarding the incident. The Organised Crime Preventive Division are conducting investigations in this regard. (Darshana Sanjeewa)
