Propaganda secretary of the Frontline Socialist Party Pubudu Jayagoda said today that the Police had visited certain party members residences in Gampaha and intimidated them. “ The Police had visited some houses of our party members in the Gampaha district and questioned them about Kumar Gunarathnam and asked them if he resided in these houses. During the questioning they had intimidated these people about doing politics with the party" he said.

Jayagoda said that the party has lodged a complaint with the Human Rights Commission and had written to the IGP this morning regarding the incident. “The Policemen had said that they were from the Kiribathgoda police but later on we found out that this was unture. The fact that they lied is also cause for suspicion. We have lodged a complaint with the Human Rights Commission and we have written to the IGP in this regard” he said.(H.F)
