Government Commits to Suppress Underworld Crime and Drug Trafficking

Date:

Cabinet Spokesman and Minister Dr. Nalinda Jayatissa affirmed the Government’s dedication to curbing underworld activities and drug trafficking.

Speaking at a recent media briefing, Minister Jayatissa emphasized that addressing these issues requires a systematic approach rather than short-term operations. “As a Government, we are committed to suppressing underworld crime and combatting drug trafficking. However, we will not rely on short-term or two-week operations. The Police and Security Forces are systematically engaging in this matter,” he stated.

The Minister noted that several preliminary measures have already been implemented and underscored the importance of evaluating the outcomes of these efforts rather than focusing solely on the methods.
