COLOMBO: (Bernama-Xinhua) Sri Lankan police have identified 112 suspects wanted under Interpol Red Notices who are believed to be hiding in 13 countries, Police Spokesman F.U. Wootler said on Thursday (Oct 29), reporte Xinhua.

Speaking at a press conference on the progress of the nationwide anti-narcotics operation "A Nation United", Wootler said authorities were taking steps to bring the suspects back to Sri Lanka and hoped to secure their return by 2027.
