The resolution to remove Inspector General of Police (IGP) Deshabandu Tennakoon from office was passed in Parliament a short while ago.
The resolution received 177 votes in favour and none against. Independent MP Ramanathan Archchuna abstained from voting.
The resolution to remove Mr. Tennakoon from the office of IGP was presented in terms of Section 17 of the Removal of Officers (Procedure) Act, No. 5 of 2002, after a Committee of Inquiry appointed to probe the charges of misconduct and gross abuse of power against him found him guilty of the majority of the charges.
