Inquiry against Pothuhera OIC for shirking duty

Kurunegala DIG Anil Priyantha has commenced an inquiry on the Pothuhera OIC for allegedly providing police security to Janaka Senadhipathi,  the controversial figure who was constructing a fake Dalada Maligawa.

The DIG’s Office said that many complaints, which said that the OIC was a follower of Senadhipathi, have been received, together with some photos and videos which showed that the OIC was worshipping him. The DIG said that a complaint against a close follower of Senadhipathi, which was lodged by a construction contractor in Kandy, had not been properly inquired by the OIC.
