The Frontline Socialist Party (FSP) has accused a group of National People’s Power (NPP) members of having forcibly taken control of its Office on Kirindiwala Road in Yakkala, Gampaha.
It is reported that the NPP members had allegedly assaulted the persons at the office and later taken control of the property.
A Police Officer at the scene informed FSP members that the NPP had filed a complaint with the Yakkala Police, stating that a court order had been received regarding the property.
He further said that requests by the Police to the FSP members for a discussion on the matter had not received a response.
However, the FSP members allege that if a court order had been issued, then the property should be officially taken over under the supervision of the relevant officials.
Speaking to the media, FSP member Duminda Nagamuwa said his party has been using this property for key party activities for over 10 years.
Stating that the NPP had eyed this property for a long time, he accused them of forcibly taking the property by abusing their power.
He further said that the court is yet to deliver its verdict on the ownership of the property, and that if a judgment has been made, then it should be enforced by the legal officers. (Newswire)
