Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa, who attended the funeral of Weligama Pradeshiya Sabha Chairman Lasantha Wickramasekara to pay his last respects, said the killing on a public day was “a deadly blow to democracy.”

He condemned the murder, calling it part of a growing culture of violence that undermines citizens’ right to live in peace, and urged an impartial investigation — noting that Wickramasekara had earlier requested police protection. (Newswire)
