Colombo, May 22 (Daily Mirror) - The Officer-in-Charge (OIC) of the Poovarasankulam Police Station in Vavuniya has been arrested by the Bribery Commission for allegedly soliciting a bribe of Rs. 500,000.

If Prez Anura didn't come to power, this bribe would have gone unnoticed. But now justice is same for North or East. Slowly but surely the wheels are turning!

Immediate arrest for half a million rupees, but no action to bring back billions of dollars taken to Uganda. No attempts bring the money from Dubai to pay the debts of the country.
