The special police team consisting of the officers of the Criminal Investigation Department and the Police Special Task Force, who have left for Madagascar, are scheduled to return to Sri Lanka today (13) or tomorrow (14) with the harak kata and kudu salidhu. This four-member police team that left yesterday (11) consists of two Assistant Superintendents of Police, who represent the Criminal Investigation Department and the Police Special Task Force.
The other two officers are Chief Inspectors of the Criminal Investigation Department and the Police Special Task Force.
The Special Task Force team are officers representing a special team of the Special Task Force that investigates underworld criminals.
An officer of the State Intelligence Service was also supposed to be included in this team. But at the last moment he was not included in this trip. Police sources revealed that it was due to a financial problem.
After bringing these two criminals to Sri Lanka, the police authorities have decided to conduct a lengthy investigation by obtaining a detention order. It is based on the information that they have been engaged in arms deals with terrorist organizations in connection with drug trafficking.
In Madagascar, eight people were arrested with harak kata and kudu salidhu, but two of them have red notices, so only two of them will be handed over to this country.
