Six Suspects Surrender in Connection with Weligama Shooting

The Matara Magistrate’s Court had previously issued arrest warrants for eight individuals, including the suspended Inspector General of Police (IGP), Deshabandu Tennakoon, in relation to the shooting. These new developments come after months of investigation and intense efforts by authorities to apprehend all those involved in the deadly attack.

The identities of the six suspects who surrendered have not yet been disclosed. Law enforcement officials continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the shooting, which has sparked widespread concern and calls for accountability in Sri Lanka's police force.

The incident is still under active investigation, and authorities are working to gather further details regarding the motivations behind the attack and the roles each suspect played in the crime.
