A heated situation has arisen among a group of people who came to get passports in front of the Kandy Immigration Department office.
The people allege that they have been inconvenienced due to the irregular schedule of the officials of the Immigration Department office.
This heated situation has arisen between a group of people who came from far away places and waited for several days to get their passports and another group who arrived at the place this morning.
Meanwhile, during an investigation on this matter, it was reported that an organized gang was illegally extorting money from the people waiting in the queue and coming to get their passports.
The people present allege that the immigration department office in Kandy is getting support for this.
