A businessman, allegedly from Lahathagoda area in Kalutara, had given a loan to a person who had not paid him back. As a punishment of not repaying the loan, the person has been assaulted and tortured by the said businessman and this incident has been recorded on a mobile phone camera for a period of 10 minutes.

Allegedly, the debtor had also neglected an order to serve under the businessman instead of having to repay the amount.
