This is absurd and ridiculous! Can a Police officer decide to hand over confiscated weapons on his own? I am sure the order came from the top. In the USA they are talking about gun control. In Sri Lanka, our great police officers even can’t keep confiscated knives and axes under lock & key! Pathetic!
Police need to recrify their mistake for the sake of national security.
Take back the weapons from the mosque asap
