December 4, 2013
The motives behind the murder of the Delft Pradeshiya Sabha Chairman, Daniel Rexian have now been linked to an illegitimate relationship between Rexian’s wife and the lead suspect, Kandasamy Kamalendran, the CID revealed.
The Chairman of the Delft Pradeshiya Sabha, Daniel Rexian was shot and killed by an unknown group while his body was found on November 27 in his home in Punkudutivu.
The PS Chairman was a member of the EDPD party.
Police stated that his wife, Rexian Anida had informed police that there was no suspicion behind the death of her husband and that he had probably consumed poison.
However, the post mortem revealed that the PS Chairman had sustained a head injury caused by a firearm and was thus pronounced a murder.
Investigations revealed that the murder was conducted with the wife’s consent while she along with the Opposition Leader of the Northern Provincial Council K. Kamalendran (EPDP) and his assistant London Sasindran were arrested for the murder.
The 9mm pistol used in the murder along with 11 bullets and the motorbike used by Kamalendran and Sasindran as the getaway vehicle were seized by the police.
The CID revealed that the wife of the victim and Kamalendran were engaged in an extra-marital relationship.
Rajapaksas to set up night bazaar in Hambantota
- Wednesday, 04 December 2013
The Mahinda Rajapaksa government is to set up a night bazaar in Hambantota in order to convert the Hambantota Town into a city that does not sleep.
Investment Promotion Minister Lakshman Yapa Abeywardena has said that the project to set up a night bazaar in Hambantota connecting the port and the airport is currently underway.
He has observed that there has been massive development in the Hambantota area with the port and airport.
According to Abeywardena, the increase in vehicles passing the Hambantota city has made it necessary to set up a night bazaar in the area.
The Rajapaksa government constructed a port and an airport in Hambantota, which is the Rajapaksa constituency, at a massive cost to the public. However, the Hambantota port has been unable to record the desired number of ships to call at the port while key international airlines have refused to land at the Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport in Hambantota. The airport has now been converted into an aircraft repair centre with only SriLankan and Mihin Lanka operating flights to it.
