A female doctor has been arrested by the Crimes Investigation Division of the Kandy Police on suspicion of driving a luxury vehicle with forged number plates.
The arrest was made during a search operation carried out on the Sumangala Mawatha in Wariyapola, Kandy, following a tip-off received by the police emergency response unit.
According to police investigations, while the vehicle is registered under the name of the suspect’s husband—who is also a doctor—the number plates displayed on the vehicle belonged to a car registered under his brother’s name.
