The Sri Lanka Police have launched a hotline for environmental destruction reporting in 1997.
The 1997 hotline is already being used to provide information on drug trafficking, criminal gangs, criminals or any other crimes that threaten national security.
The Police ask the general public to provide information on environmental damage, including illegal fishing, sand mining, deforestation and unauthorized landfills.
Sri Lanka Police ensure that the investigation of these crimes is led by special teams and that the identity of the informants as well as the confidentiality of the information will be ensured.
