ATM card fraud: Female SIs nabbed

Two women police sub-inspectors were arrested yesterday for allegedly withdrawing money with an ATM card belonging to a police colleague. The incident happened in Kandy, during the perahera celebrations.

Police said the two SIs had withdrawn Rs. 120,000, using a card belonging to a Kalutara Police Training School SI who had come to Kandy for perahera duty. The visiting police personnel were put up at the Pallakele Training School. It was at the training school that the ATM card had been stolen. The pin number was written in a diary belonging to the SI victim.

The two suspects were due to be produced before a magistrate yesterday.
