The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has searched the office premises of former MP Sagala Ratnayaka in Morawaka, Matara, as part of efforts to locate former Inspector General of Police (IGP) Deshabandu Tennakoon.
The search follows an open arrest warrant issued by the Matara Magistrate’s Court yesterday (11), ordering authorities to arrest Tennakoon immediately and produce him before the court.
Meanwhile, Tennakoon’s writ petition seeking to prevent his arrest is scheduled to be heard by the Court of Appeal today (12). Filed through his legal representatives, the petition requests an interim injunction to stay the arrest warrant.
