Samindu Dilshan Piyumanga, the suspect in custody over the fatal shooting of Ganemulla Sanjeewa, was produced before the Colombo Magistrate’s Court today (4 June) for an identification parade.
Currently held at the Boossa Prison, the suspect was brought to court under tight security arrangements.
Two witnesses were presented for the line-up; however, neither was able to identify the suspect.
