Shani the Sherlock Holmes of SL gets his richly deserved promotion !

(Lanka-e-News- 03.May.2016, 11.30PM) Popular and respected crime detection officer Shani Abeysekera of the CID best known as Sri Lanka’s Sherlock Holmes was promoted from his present ASP rank to SP . This promotion was  given with  retrospective effect  - that is , his SP appointment  takes effect as if he was promoted   four years ago . This is a most  salutary decision vis a vis the unfair treatment meted out to  him during the ‘nefarious decade .’

During  the recent past , whenever there was a controversial crime, its investigation  was entrusted to Shani  , and every criminal in those cases was  sentenced to the gallows.

The murder of Assistant Customs authority Sujeeth Prasanna , murder of Royal park youth  , Angulana murder that was committed  by the police, Shyam murder committed by Vaas Gunawardena DIG and his son , Hasitha Madawala murder, the assassination bid on  former president Chandrika at Town hall premises  by a suicide bomber and other similar grave crimes were investigated  by Shani Abeysekera . Another most controversial crime of abduction  of Lanka e news journalist Prageeth Ekneliyagoda is also  being investigated by the CID  under him.

While the people of the country are in earnest anticipation of a great service from Shani Abeysekera in the future as in the past , Lanka e news editorial board along with the  millions of Lanka e news viewers too wish him all the best in his new ventures!
