Sampath Manamperi, accused of hiding two containers of materials allegedly used to make the drug “Ice” and reportedly linked to underworld figure Kehelbaddara Padme, surrendered to the Walasmulla Magistrate’s Court today.
On September 15, Manamperi’s lawyer told the Court of Appeal that he was ready to surrender to the relevant Magistrate’s Court in connection with the containers found in Middeniya, which were suspected to contain chemicals for producing crystal methamphetamine (Ice).
Following this, the Court of Appeal instructed the Inspector General of Police (IGP) to ensure Manamperi’s safety during the surrender. Investigating officers were also told to follow this order.
