Mr. Nadish De Silva, Vice President of the University Doctors’ Association, said that there is a serious suspicion that there was a plan to kill Rohan Laksiri, Secretary of the University Doctors’ Association, at Ruhuna University, where he works.
Mr. Nadish de Silva said that when Mr. Rohan Laksiri went to his room at the University of Ruhuna on the 6th, there was an unbearable chemical smell, and he had trouble breathing.
He said that the Vice-Chancellor of the university has been informed about the incident, and a complaint has been lodged with the Matara Police.
Mr. Nadish de Silva said that after the Vice Chancellor was informed of the incident, he immediately took action and washed and disinfected Mr. Rohan Laksiri’s room before carrying out the investigations.
Meanwhile, he also mentioned that the Matara Police has received statements regarding the incident, but no further investigation will be conducted and the Federation of University Professors’ Association strongly opposes the police’s decision.
