The ‘killers’ of the Canadian Tamil, Anthonypillai Mahendrasa, have been caught, according to the pro-government newspaper, The Island.
The newspaper claims that a police investigation discovered the ‘mastermind’ of the murder. According to the police, the murder was committed as the suspect believed the victim was carrying a lot of cash.
Four men in total were arrested. The police allegedly recovered a laptop and two telephones, owned by the victim, as well as the axe and iron rods used in the killing.
In a country where injustice for crimes committed against Tamils is endemic, for the police to have 'solved' this crime in less than three weeks truly is a remarkable feat.
Perhaps they can also find out why the suspects tortured and mutilated the victim, for ‘just’ an alleged robbery.
