Minister Counsellor (Defence) attached to the Sri Lankan High Commission in London, Brigadier Priyankara Fernando arrived in Sri Lanka today.
He was recalled for special consultations on the video published on social media capturing him making a ‘throat-slitting’ gesture in response to a Tamil group of protesters outside the Sri Lankan High Commission premises in London.
Brigadier Priyankara Fernando was immediately recalled from his service following the release of the video but was reinstated soon after, with the intervention of President Maithripala Sirisena.
