Two suspects wanted for extensive investigations into narcotics, illegal firearms, and organized crime have been deported from Abu Dhabi and brought back to the Bandaranaike International Airport today (3).
The thirty-seven and thirty-six-year-old suspects were held by security forces in the United Arab Emirates after having stored footage on their mobile phones showing drones and missiles launched by Iran against the UAE, as well as the moments they struck their targets.
Following initial statements, the suspects were handed over to the Terrorism Investigation Division and the Colombo South Division Crime Investigation Department.
