CBCID intensifies efforts to collect blood samples of Angoda Lokka's parents: 2 special teams appointed to arrest ally


Coimbatore: The CBCID police are intensifying their efforts to collect blood samples from the parents of Sri Lankan Gangster Angoda Lokka. 2 special forces are set up to catch his ally anf an IAS officer has been appointed to oversee the case. Sri Lanka's gangster drug lord Angoda Lokka, who had been in hiding in Cheranmanagar, Coimbatore for more than two years, died mysteriously on July 3. Medical reports said his death was natural when things related to his death were investigated.

Angoda Lokka was pronounced dead of a heart attack by his girlfriend Amani Tanji, Madurai lawyer Sivagami Sundari and Dyaneswaran from Erode. Angoda Lokka was staying in Coimbatore under the name of Pradeep Singh with fake documents. Peelamedu police initially launched an investigation into the alleged impersonation. The case was later transferred to the CBCID. They camped in Coimbatore and searched the house where Angoda was staying andalso the gym where he trained. His girlfriend Amani Tanji, Sivagami Sundari and Dyaneswaran were arrested and interrogated.

To ensure that it was indeed Angoda Lokka who died in Coimbatore, the CBCID police planned to conduct a DNA test to confirm that. Steps were taken to obtain blood samples from his parents and the fingerprints of Angoda Lokka with the Sri Lankan police. For this, the CBCID police sent a letter to the Union Home Ministry last August requesting that blood samples and fingerprints be obtained from the Sri Lankan government. But it was delayed due to coronavirus infection. Now that the impact of the coronavirus has diminished, these tasks have been accelerated. The Union Home Ministry has sent a letter from the CBCID police to the Union Foreign Ministry on the 7th instructing them to take action.

The Central Ministry of External Affairs is in the process of forwarding the letter of the CBCID Police to the Government of Sri Lanka. There is a problem in sending blood samples and fingerprints due to the high incidence of coronavirus in Sri Lanka.

In addition, an IAS officer has been appointed to monitor the case on behalf of the State and he is overseeing the proceedings. As Sanuka Tananayake, an ally of Angoda Lokka, is unlikely to have left India and gone abroad, the task of setting up 2 special forces to catch him has been intensified. Questions are being raised what if his accomplice also underwent facelift surgery like Angoda and has destroyed his identity and living in hiding.
