The Defence Ministry is investigating the alleged abduction of an individual in Kotahena last month, a relative of the missing person said.
Christopher Fernando was allegedly abducted in a white van in Kotahena last month and has not been heard of since then.
Fernando’s relative Roy Fernando told The Sunday Leader that Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa has now personally got involved with the investigations.
Roy Fernando said that initial investigations had revealed that the number plate on the van used in the abduction was fake.
Asked if he had faith in the investigations, Roy Fernando said that he has placed his faith in the Defence Secretary and no one else.
Christopher Fernando (55), a UPFA supporter and an associate of UPFA MP Duminda Silva, was going about his business at Jampettah Street in Kotahena on December 5, when in broad daylight a white van pulled over near his shop and a group of unidentified men with T-56 weapons in their hands, pulled him inside the van and sped away. Roy Fernando, told The Sunday Leader that witnesses had seen five armed men clad in white shirts and pants carry out the abduction.
