Tense situation in Kotakethana



L.H. Chandrasiri, the brother of the main suspect in some of the killings at Kotakethana, was booed and jeered by an angry crowd of more than 500, when he visited the residence of his brother the Pradeshiya Sabha Member L.H. Dharmasiri.

The villagers surrounded the house on seeing the suspect’s elder brother and his wife entering the house, which had been kept closed after the arrest and remand of the PS member.

The army, STF and the police were deployed to restore normalcy.

The police ordered those inside the house to come out and they were taken away to the town in a three-wheeler under police escort.(Lasantha N. Perera)
