Are these arrests done to please the UNHRC?
Sri Lanka Police is great.
They took into custody, never protected any high ranker and implemented the law . But Sri Lanka admin. service (SLAS) and politicians always protected their friends whether they are in opposition or not. Eg. Lalith Weerathunga and many politicians.
