Wattala murder suspects arrested at BIA

Two suspects wanted in connection with the recent murder in Wattala have been arrested at the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA), Katunayake, police said.

On July 24, a group had reportedly stormed a birthday party held at a hotel in the Wattala area and opened fire, killing a man attending the event.

Following the murder, the suspects had reportedly fled illegally by boat to Dhanushkodi, India, where they were arrested by Indian defence authorities.

The suspects were subsequently deported from Chennai to BIA, while Indian authorities had informed Criminal Investigation Department (CID) officers at the airport in advance of their arrival.

The 02 suspects, aged 30 and 31, are reportedly residents of the Wattala area.

After recording their initial statements, CID officers at BIA handed the suspects over to the Western Province North Crime Division for further investigations.
