When the case was called for the second time yesterday 18th the OIC of the Kobeigane police said this.

 

Rev. Wekandawala Rahula, Duminda Alahakoon and Sampath Balasooriya representing the Nature Studies Center participated.

 

Probing the complaint the human rights commission informed the police to take immediate action on behalf of the environmentalists who were hindered.

 

Kobeigane police OIC told the human rights commission that the Jiffy Company is trying to induce the police by offering kickbacks but the police would not bend down and take immediate action against the Jiffy Company.

 

However many environmental organizations continuously alleged the relevant institutions about the environment pollution made by the Jiffy Company but none of the institutions took action. Allegations were leveled against the Kobeigane police and the environmentalists alleged that the police was supporting the Jiffy Company.
