Several complaints had been lodged with the Kollupitiya Police claiming that various items and equipment were stolen from the Temple Trees.

Police said the staff of the Temple Trees had lodged the complaints.

The Media Unit of the Temple Trees also complained that some of their equipment was stolen from the Temple Trees.

However, a senior officer of the Kollupitiya Police said they were unable to ascertain what items were stolen from the Temple Trees premises as protesters are still occupying the Temple Trees.

However, the police confirmed that a number of items were stolen from the Temple Trees and several properties were also damaged.

Meanwhile, several protesters inside the Temple Trees were hospitalized early this morning following a clash between two groups.

Aragalaya organisers were warned that there WILL be those 'planted' inside their crowd to carry out terrible things including burning properties, destruction of Public property , stealing artefacts etc. They should have been far FAR more careful. Now they have to wear all the bad flak! MM

Araglaya leaders ae responsible for opening up these historical places to the public haphazardly instead of handing over to the Cultural Ministry. Mentality of Aragalaya people. Don't blame anyone. Aragalaya fail before bloomed.

It is very disgusting that our Police and Tri Forces are not effective in controlling Crisis Situations. Either they are Brutal or Lame. Police Chiefs and Army General are to be blamed for all these problems.
