Speaking during a peaceful protest organized by the aggrieved parties near the Gangodawila Court in Nugegoda today (20), Premadasa emphasized that the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) stands firmly with the victims.
He further pledged to provide the necessary legal assistance free of charge to help them recover their losses.
