The international police, INTERPOL, has turned down a Red notice request to arrest the founder and Chief Editor of Lanka E-News Sandaruwan Senadheera.

An arrest warrant was recently issued for Sandaruwan Senadheera. Gampaha Chief Magistrate ordered that the warrant be issued via INTERPOL since Senadheera resides overseas.

Sandaruwan Senadheera has been accused of contempt of court and a complaint had been filed against him.

However the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) informed court today that INTERPOL has refused to issue the Red notice as charges have not been filed in court.
