The two suspects who have been arrested in connection with the brutal murder of Seya Sadewmi in Kotadeniyawa, have been sent to the Judicial Medical Officer in Negombo.

Our reporter says the two suspects were brought to the JMO in Negombo, separately.

The suspects were subsequently remanded until September 28. Police are also investigating the contents of a computer belonging to the 17-year-old suspect who is in custody.

Demonstrations were held across the country on Monday  as well, demanding that authorities reveal the identities of the killers, and calling for the imposition of the death penalty.
