(Lanka-e-News- 07.Nov.2015, 11.00PM) About 80 police officers of various ranks have been summoned to the Boosa camp headquarters which is maintained under the Terrorist investigation division (TID) by DIG Nalaka Silva , the Director and Lal Gamage the chief inspector of the TID . They have been summoned to take care of the Tamil nationals who are detainees there , to satisfy the needs of Nalaka Silva and Lal Gamage.
The number of Tamil detainees are only four in that camp . Yet this large number of police officers have been summoned for a different reason.Nalaka Silva and Lal Gamage were two servile subordinates of Chandra Wakishta , the former DIG of the TID , now retired. In order to get the work done in the house and village of Wakishta , it was Boosa camp OIC Lal Gamage who was enlisted.
It is Lal Gamage who still looks after the goats and the dragon fruit plantation of Wakishta.Towards this the TID vehicles and oil are also used. Lal Gamage even now with the backing of the retired DIG Wakishta’s power causes various sorts of harassment to the other police officers , such as disallowing them from going to their homes.
Since Gamage is a resident of Galle he is also moving heaven and earth to preclude the closure of the Boosa camp , and to further reinforce his power. This is why he has needed 80 officers to look after just 4 detainees.
Thera are only 5 police officers providing security to this camp. But because Gamage has to look after the house and plantation of Wakishta , this redundant camp is being clung on to in fear that Gamage would be transferred.
Lal Gamage once threw a party for Wakishta upon his retirement . The worst part? He collected Rs. 500 each from TID officers by force to have that function , and those monies were credited to his private account, it is reported.
