IGP Wickramaratne to be ousted today?

Date:

C.D. Wickramaratne is due to be removed from his post as the Inspector General of Police (IGP) today (21), internal sources disclosed.

Wickramaratne is accused of paving the way for Rajapaksa devotees to barge into the protests held in Galleface on May 09 and assault the peaceful protesters by ordering the Police not to dissolve them using tear gas and water canons in a move to allow the terror to happen.

Following Wickramaratne’s dismissal, Senior Deputy Inspector General of Police Nandana Munasinghe may be appointed as the acting IGP, sources further revealed.
