Silent protest in support of Shani Abeysekara (PHOTOS)

Date:

A silent protest and a petition was organised in support of former Director of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) Shani Abeysekara in front of the Hulftsdorp (Aluthkade) Court premises today (10).

The demonstrators said there is a political attempt to silence Abeysekara via conviction in connection with the Easter Sunday Massacre and the abduction of Pradeep Ekneligoda and many other crimes.

Accordingly, this intervention is being made in protection of Abeysekara’s life, they added.
