Slain business leader Dinesh Schaffter’s wife Tarni has told the investigators that she noticed a change in his behavior since the morning of December 15, the day Shafter, a well-known was killed.
However, she said that he did not tell her what was the reason for this strange behavior.
It has been revealed that there are other businesses related to Dinesh Schaffter other than the positions he was holding as a Director of Janashakti Group and Managing Director of
First Capital Holding Plc.
Meanwhile, according to the wife’s statement, he left the house saying that he would return in half an hour and she said that she was upset because he did not return in half an hour as said.
Tarni Shafter has said that Dinesh Shafter did not respond to calls to inquire about his whereabouts, but he had exchanged his location on his mobile phone.
According to the data, it was revealed that he is in the Borella Cemetery area, so she informed Onagree Patrick Krish Perera, who was a relative of her husband and had a close relationship with him, to investigate this matter.
Another piece of information that has been discovered by the investigators of the Criminal Investigation Department who investigated the incident is that he went straight from his house to the Borella cemetery. On the way, he got two small bags of enough snacks for two people from Rodrigo’s Legendary Flavors store located on Malalasekara Mawatha.
A post-mortem examination revealed that Schaffter had eaten one portion of the food. The other snack bag that was obtained has now been brought to the attention of crime investigators.
Investigators believe that the person who had breakfast with him in the cemetery could be the killer and according to the way the murder happened, he could be a close person who knew Dinesh Shafter well.
The investigators say that the investigation will be launched based on every sensitive information received.
