16 Aug, 2015

The police today assured transparency in the investigations over missing journalist Prageeth Eknaligoda and denied allegations raised by the wife of the journalist.

A statement by the police headquarters said that the police will not leave room for the investigations to be hampered by revealing all details to the media.

The police statement said that key information related to the disappearance of the journalist have already been unearthed following the arrest of three suspects.

Eknaligoda’s wife Sandhya Eknaligoda had raised suspicions of an attempt to suppress evidence over the investigations following outside pressure but police denied the allegations.

The police say they want to arrest all those involved in the disappearance of the journalist and produce those responsible before a court of law.

The police statement said that revealing every single detail to the media before investigations conclude, could affect the progress in the probe. (Colombo Gazette)
