Sirikotha comes under mob attack

Proper security had been requested from the Inspector General of Police (IGP) for the UNP headquarters as an election was held today, however no such security was provided, says Tissa Attanayake.

If the police had looked on while a group of thugs had arrived from outside and attacked the party headquarters while the opposition leader and MPs were inside, it is a “bad example”, he said. Property as well as the vehicles of several MPs was badly damaged due to the tense situation outside Sirikotha today, following the release of the election results and the reelecting of Ranil Wickramasinghe as UNP leader. Attanayake claims the attack had been carried out by an “organized group of thugs”.
