COLOMBO — An Indonesian YouTube channel has broadcast live footage of the arrest of notorious Sri Lankan underworld leader "Kehelbaddara Padme" and his accomplices, signaling the end of their criminal operations. The video, which has since gone viral, details the complete story of the raid conducted by the Indonesian Police.
The operation was the culmination of an extensive investigation led by Indonesian authorities in collaboration with Sri Lankan law enforcement agencies. According to reports, the raid was carried out on a hideout used by Padme, where he and his associates were believed to be directing their illicit activities.
The arrest of "Kehelbaddara Padme" marks a significant victory in the ongoing fight against organized crime and drug trafficking. For years, Padme had been a key figure in Sri Lanka's criminal underworld, but he had been operating from abroad, making him difficult to apprehend.
The raid is a testament to the strong international cooperation between the two nations, which has been crucial in targeting criminal networks that operate across borders.
