Notorious Sri Lankan underworld figure Sinharage Saminda Silva, alias ‘Kudu Anju’, who was arrested in France, has been released on the orders of a French court.
A photo has been released after his release.
An Interpol Red Notice had been issued for ‘Kudu Anju’, who had been wanted for his involvement in multiple organized crimes including the murder of Dehiwala-Mount Lavinia Municipal Council member Ranjan de Silva, as well as large-scale drug trafficking.
He was arrested in France in April.
Meanwhile, it is reported that the Mt. Lavinia Police arrested four persons for allegedly having hosted a ‘drug-fuelled party’ and lighting firecrackers, to celebrate the release of ‘Kudu Anju’.
