The curtain finally falls on Ishara Sewwandi as she is flown back from Nepal with five accomplices, setting the stage for Colombo’s crime drama to continue in full view of a nation already numbed by underworld bloodshed.
The saga of underworld crime took a new twist when six Sri Lankans arrested in Nepal, including prime suspect Ishara Sewwandi, were brought back to Colombo under tight security. Sewwandi, accused of orchestrating the killing of notorious gangster Ganemulla Sanjeewa inside a Colombo court, has now become the centerpiece of the ongoing investigation. Authorities confirmed that she and the group will be handed over to the Colombo Crimes Division, the nerve center tasked with unmasking the deeper web behind the brazen courtroom shooting
The episode underscores how Sri Lanka’s underworld continues to spill across borders, blending crime, politics and organized networks in a chilling display of lawlessness. As the spotlight falls once again on the cracks within the justice system, the return of Sewwandi signals a decisive moment that could either expose the machinery of organized crime or fade into yet another unfinished chapter in the nation’s bloody underworld chronicle.
