The Colombo Crimes Division (CCD) has arrested two individuals who allegedly assisted Ishara Sewwandi, a suspect wanted in connection with the killing of underworld figure Sanjeewa Kumara Samararatne, alias Ganemulla Sanjeewa. Police said the arrests were made on October 16 and 17 in connection with the February 19, 2025, shooting incident at the Aluthkade Court Complex, where Ganemulla Sanjeewa was killed. The arrested suspects — a 52-year-old woman and her 31-year-old brother-in-law from the Wellipenna area — are accused of helping Sewwandi evade arrest. Both suspects have been detained under a detention order for further questioning by the CCD. (Newswire)…
