Buddha statues in front of cars, banned?

Buddha statues in front of cars, banned?

A mistaken interpretation has been brought forward some days back across a video which circulated regarding a spot fine and that matters causing discord among religions was announced thereby. 

As stated in this video the police officer has issued a fine for keeping a Buddha statue in the front part
of the vehicle. But what police say on the other hand is that this spot fine was issued because of a garland that was fixed in a manner that obliterated the sight of the driver. 

It is stated in the police announcement as follows:

Recently a  video has been released to the social media and what was included in it was that a traffic police officer has told that the small  Buddhist statue in the front part of the motor vehicle be removed. In this connection under instructions of inspector general of police director of traffic control Mr. Indika Hapugoda of police headquarters had carried out a survey and that it was revealed that what the said police officer had advised was the garland attached to the middle part of the main windscreen be removed. 

4 other persons apart from the statement of the said person relevant to this survey had recorded the statement concerned. According to that statement what is clear is that the police officer has not given advice to remove a Buddha statue. By fixing garlands, small flower-pots are made to hang or fixed on the dashboard in a manner that obliterates the front windscreen of a vehicle could result in accidents. The driver has been advised regarding that mistake. Afterwards the driver concerned has released the said video by misinterpreting it to the effect that the police officer has given instructions to remove the Buddha statue. 

As it at first sight is seen that through the said video it has tried to create discord among communities and religions and hatred. Thus an inquiry has been launched against the person who circulated this news and released it across the social media under the international agreement act clause 3 in relation to civil and political rights 2007 No. 56, and according to information revealed thereby, legal action would be implemented.
