Accordingly, the deceased has been identified as an engineer by the name P. A. Pushpakumara Nissanka, a resident of Siyamabalagoda, Polgasowita. Police have also uncovered that the deceased’s wife is a practicing doctor at the Batticaloa Hospital.

The deceased was found lying in a pool of his own blood by a neighbour, who had entered the house through a window that had been left open, after the deceased had not responded to his repeated calls.
