Vavuniya residents in fear as Sri Lankan police collect personal details
10 April 2021
Residents in Vavuniya are in a state of fear as Sri Lankan police officers visit homes demanding personal information.
Sri Lankan police visited the houses of residents in the garden areas of Vavuniya this week, and handed over forms requesting resident details; stating that they will come back to retrieve the requested information.
Locals state that the request for individual details without any clear information or reasons has created a state of panic among the public.
Details requested on the form include name, address, occupation, National Identity Card number and telephone number of the occupants of the houses.
The Sri Lankan police have a long history of intimidating public by collecting personal details without justification over the years.
