The Eastern Province DIG was questioned by the Criminal Investigation Department on Thursday for nearly four hours over alleged links to a suspected organized crime boss.
Senior DIG Varuna Jayasundara arrived at CID headquarters on Thursday morning to give a statement about his alleged relationship with an underworld leader known as “Kehelbaththara Padme,” investigators said.
