Notorious drug kingpin and underworld ring leader Mohommad Najim Mohommad Imran alias 'Kanjipani Imran' was ordered to be further remanded De 27.
The order was issued when he was presented before Colombo Chief Magistrate Lanka Jayarathne today (Dec 12).

The CCD had earlier sent the Compact Disc to the Government Analyst’s Department for the voice verification.
The CCD had earlier informed the court that the suspect Kanjipani Imran had levelled death threats in order to obtain the release of an accomplice who had been arrested over a narcotics-related case.
It was previously reported that Kanjipani Imran’s accomplice was arrested by the Keselwatte Police with 20 grams and 840 milligrammes of heroin in his possession.
Kanjipani Imran’s accomplice was identified as Kemadasan Dushyanthan, 36 year-old resident of Pottuvil.
