Police Launches Incentive Program to Combat Illegal Weapons

March 22, Colombo, LNW: In a proactive move to combat the proliferation of illegal weapons and explosives, the Sri Lanka Police has introduced a new initiative aimed at incentivizing the reporting of such contraband. Under this program, individuals who provide credible information leading to the detection and seizure of illegal weapons and explosives will be eligible for cash rewards.

Recognizing the importance of confidential informants in maintaining public safety, the program offers rewards based on the severity and type of weapons seized by law enforcement authorities. This initiative not only aims to encourage the public to come forward with valuable information but also serves as a deterrent against the possession and trafficking of illicit arms.

By fostering collaboration between law enforcement and the community, Sri Lanka Police endeavors to enhance efforts in curbing the illegal circulation of weapons, thereby promoting a safer and more secure environment for all citizens.
