The Colombo Additional Magistrate has ruled that the mysterious death
of Rajkumari, who died in police custody after being arrested by the
Welikada Police, was an unlawful homicide.
Additional Magistrate also ordered that all the parties involved in
Rajkumari’s murder to be arrested and produced before the court.
Facts were revealed that Rajkumari was beaten by the Welikada police
while in police custody and the police tried hard to cover the matter.
However due to the intervention of a group of Sri Lankan lawyers who
came forward to do justice to her death, the court paid attention to
the murder.
According to the reports, Rajkumari died due to the trauma caused by
the damage to the muscles, assaulted by a blunt weapon or similar
force which caused internal bleeding into the body.
As soon as Rajkumari was arrested the media reported that the
Welikada police filed a complaint against Sudharma Nethikumar where
Rajkumari worked as a domestic helper.
It is said that the police brutally assaulted Rajkumari because of the
strange relationship between Sudharma Netthikumara and Law and Order
Minister Tiran Alas.
However, the police officers who assaulted an innocent woman to win
favors from the minister are now to be arrested. We are waiting to see
if those police officers will be allowed to be freed from this murder
with the privileges they received from the minister.
It is a good lesson for the police officers who lick the arses of the ministers.
