Anti-corruption groups were in for a rude shock this week over the changes under way at the Financial Crimes Investigation Division (FCID).
Some top sleuths, trained abroad since the setting up of the FCID under the Yahapalanaya or Good Governance government have received transfer orders. They are being moved out.

The move comes at a time when the Government is setting up a separate High Court to try those accused of corruption and related charges.
