In a bid to absolve his son, State Minister Palitha Range Bandara now claims the sword and club found in his son, Yashodha Range Bandara’s vehicle following the recent accident caused by him while driving drunk was left by a group that had attacked two others travelling with his son at the time.
“No investigation in this regard is being conducted,” he says adding that they had complained of this attack to the hospital Police.
However, the owner of the house damaged in the accident, Chanaka Lahiru speaking to Hiru News has refuted the allegations by the Minister claiming that no such incident took place. According to the homeowner, people had gathered to take the wounded to the hospital. “Police arrived in less than 30 minutes so if there was such an attack they would have witnessed it,” he says.
The Minister now also claims that cab involved in the accident was not public property as being claimed by the Police.
