Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa claims that two LMG firearms belonging to the Terrorist Investigation Division (TID) had been prepared at the ‘Jana Balaya Colombata’ protest to be fired at its participants in case of a tense situation.

 

The police also operate as a criminal gang at present and the police operations carried out to curb the criminal incidents are insufficient, he further pointed out.

 

Mahinda Rajapaksa stated this responding to the queries raised by media persons today (05) at an event held in Colombo.
