Sri Lanka's Inspector General of Police, Deshabandu Tennakoon, has been found guilty of serious misconduct and abuse of power by a parliamentary committee.
The committee's report recommends his removal from office, marking the first time in Sri Lankan history that a police chief faces impeachment. The Speaker of Parliament has outlined the next steps, with party leaders set to decide when to debate the resolution for his removal. The inquiry was prompted by allegations including criminal ties and involvement in a shooting incident.
The process now moves to Parliament for final action, as the search for a new police chief begins.
