The police have arrested a saffron-robed monk called ‘Vishwa Buddha’ for behaving in a manner offensive to Buddhism.

The 34-year-old, who is originally from Ratnapura, was taken into custody in the area of Kalagedihena.

While the arrestee is slated to be produced before the Colombo Magistrate’s Court tomorrow (Dec.13), the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) is conducting further investigations into the incident.
