Two persons have been arrested with 21 light bulbs to be distributed at an election meeting in support of former Deputy Minister Neomal Perera in Saliyawewa.
The two suspects, residents of Upper Puliyakulama, were arrested at the Puliyankulama community hall along with a small lorry allegedly used by them.
