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 procedure for his removal, and party leaders will decide when to debate the resolution. The findings stem from allegations including criminal ties and involvement in a controversial shooting incident.
The race to appoint a new police chief has already begun as the country moves to restore public trust in law enforcement.
