The wife of the late underworld figure ‘Makandure Madush’ has submitted a letter to IGP Priyantha Weerasooriya, calling for an investigation into her husband’s death.
Speaking to the media, the woman said that there is suspicion over his death while in Police custody.
“It wouldn’t have mattered if he had been sentenced by the court and hanged. But it is an incident where he was murdered on the road like an animal. At the time, they said the other underworld gang’s motorcycle was found. But we have not been informed of the incident or any suspects involved yet,” she said.
Stating that it is 05 years since the incident, Makandure Madush’s wife said she has approached the IGP and expects justice from the authorities.
She further raised suspicion on whether the death had taken place due to his association with certain persons, which had been largely discussed in society at the time of the incident.
Makandure Madush’s wife added that she hopes the current government will enforce the law in this regard. (Newswire)
