An electric lamp ripped off from its post and stolen from the Welipanna Resort Zone of the Southern Expressway was found dropped by someone near the Kurundugahahathekma entry/exit point, police said.

They said the security camera system which had failed to operative at that time due to the disconnection of the power supply made it possible for the culprits to remove the electric lamp.

This Resort Zone was declared open by President Mahinda Rajapaksa last Thursday.
