A team of UNP MPs who were on an inspection tour of the Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport have come under attack by unidentified goons, the Ada Derana reporter confirms. Stones were pelted at the bus that the MPs were travelling in, UNP MP R. Yogarajan told Ada Derana.
The team comprised UNP MPs Ajith P. Perera, Eran Wickremaratne, R. Yogarajan, Nalin Bandara and Ajith Manapperuma. While our bus was attacked outside the airport, while inside a group hooted at us, Yogarajan told Ada Derana.
He added that the MPs were threatened by this group and despite complaining to
a high ranking police officer no action was taken. Then we went to the Hambantota
Harbour where a gun wielding Hambantota Mayor Kavinda Fernando threatened us
while a Police ASP and HQI looked on silently, Yogarajan added.
