The warrants were issued following investigations which revealed that the suspects were linked to the largest heroin haul valued at over Rs 2.9 billion which was seized in Kollupitiya last Sunday.

Questioning of the two suspects who were arrested in connection with the seizure revealed the names of five leading drug dealers including 'Kosgoda Sujee', and 'Morrill' who were also involved.
