Operation ‘Yukthiya’ temporarily paused for Christmas and Poya Day

Date:

Colombo (LNW): The ongoing special operation, Operation ‘Yukthiya’, aimed at combating narcotics distribution and organised crimes, will undergo a temporary suspension during the upcoming holidays.

Police Spokesman SSP Nihal Thalduwa announced that the island-wide operation will be briefly halted on December 24, 25, and 26.

This decision is driven by the need to deploy police officers to specific duties on Christmas Day (Dec. 25) and Poya Day (Dec. 26).

Thalduwa clarified that the temporary suspension is not an end to the special operation and assured that it will resume after the holiday period.
