Two suspects have been arrested in Rajagiriya with more than 3kg of heroin, says the Police Narcotics Bureau (PNB).

 

The PNB officers arrested the first suspect during a raid carried out last night (28) at Koswatta Road in Rajagiriya, when the suspect was transporting 2kg 257g of heroin in a three-wheeler.

 

Cash worth of Rs. 40,120 was also seized from the suspect and the three-wheeler that he had been driving was taken into custody.

 

Interrogations into this suspect have led to the arrest of another at a house in Kalupawala area.

 

The PNB officers seized 1kg 10g of heroin in possession of the second suspect.

 

The duo, aged 35-year-old, are residents of Borella and Rajagiriya areas.

 

They will be produced before courts today (29) and the PNB officers are proceeding with the investigations into the incident.
