Colombo, Dec.21 (Daily Mirror) Public Security Minister Tiran Alles has received a threatening call from an overseas underworld figure following a media briefing at the Presidential Media Centres on the progress of the island-wide special operation, Yukthiya” (Justice).

Shortly after the briefing concluded, Minister Alles reportedly received an anonymous call, suspected to be from an overseas criminal. The Minister reportedly activated the speakerphone, allowing a media secretary to record the entire conversation.

The caller began by questioning the Minister’s remarks during the media conference, where the minister allegedly hinted at using maximum force against underworld criminals interfering with the police operation. Minister Alles told that he would not hesitate to resort to stringent measures if the underworld posed a threat to the police.

In a chilling turn of events, the caller issued a threat against the Minister’s safety, vowing to “take care of him” within seven poya days.

Minister Alles also responded, “I will finish this in two, not seven poyas. I am committed to doing whatever is necessary.”

As the conversation escalated, the caller elaborated on weapons and recounted previous incidents involving criminal casualties. Minister Alles, however, maintained his focus on the legality of the operation, stating, “I am conducting this operation within the bounds of the law. Regardless of the pressure, I will persevere and take necessary actions.”

During the media brefing, Minister Alles declared an unwavering commitment to continuing the operation to suppress drug trafficking and underworld activities in the country, regardless of external pressures.
