I am of the view that the police would conduct an unbiased investigation in connection with the accident that left two youths injured in Rajagiriya on Sunday evening, Megapolis and Western Province Development Minister Patali Champika Ranawaka said.


One individual was injured and another sustained life threatening injuries following the accident that occurred involving a Ministry vehicle and a motorbike.


“However, several media outlets had attempted to mislead the public about the Sunday’s accident,” Minister said.


The Minister pointed out the driver of the vehicle has also surrendered to the police following the accident. “We hope that the police would conduct an unbiased investigation,” he added.


The critically injured person has been identified as Sandeepa Sampath of Godagama and the other as a resident of Colombo 05.
