Police Spokesman SSP Jaliya Senaratne has been transferred to the Kankesanthurai Police Division as the Personal Assistant to the Senior DIG of the Northern Province.
Jaliya Senaratne was criticized recently over the contradictory statements made by him on the arrest and release of Riyaj Bathiudeen, brother of MP Rishard Bathiudeen, over the Easter Sunday attacks.
The decision to transfer Jaliya Senaratne was taken based on disciplinary grounds, Police sources said. (NewsWire)
