Additional Solicitor General Ayesha Jinasena, who appeared on behalf of the CID when the case was taken up recently, told the court that the Attorney General had recommended to the IGP that senior DIG in charge of the Western Province Deshabandu Tennakoon be transferred to a position outside the province.

Accordingly, the Colombo Fort Magistrate Thilina Gamage had directed the IGP to appear before the court today (01) regarding the non-compliance with the said recommendation.

In that background, IGP C. D. Wickramaratne had appeared in court today.
