A 24-year-old riding a motorbike naked has been arrested in the Kadugannawa area.
Upon receiving reports of a naked individual traveling along the Colombo – Kandy main road, police had attempted to stop him in the Kegalle and Mawanella police areas, but he managed to evade capture.
However, he was arrested after the Kadugannawa Police managed to arrest him after setting up roadblocks.
During questioning, the suspect has reportedly claimed that he undertook this act to observe public reactions to such an incident.
He was produced before the Kandy Magistrate’s Court, which ordered him to be remanded until March 05.
A request was also made to refer him for a psychiatric evaluation.
