Three police sub Inspectors and a police constable attached to the Dehiwela police were interdicted for allegedly neglecting their official duties and thus tarnishing the image of a relative a top police officer, Police media spokesman Prishantha Jayakody said.

He said among the main reasons for interdiction were not recording complaints properly and recording incorrect statements regarding complaints made.

He said according to investigations carried out over a credit card fraud, they had erroneously linked the name of the top police officer’s relative. (M.S.Perera)
