Three Italian and French students and a Sri Lankan student were attacked yesterday (08) by a husband and wife running a cafe near the Sigiriya Inn, who got angry because they asked the price of biscuits and soft drinks before buying them.
These foreign students have come to Sri Lanka along with a 21-year-old student from Madapata, Piliyandala, who is engaged in higher education in France. Police say that there is one Italian student and two French students among them.
Sigiriya Police say that these people went to visit Sigiriya and Pidurangala yesterday and faced this ordeal.
According to the complaint made by these students, the husband and wife running the restaurant have been arrested.
There, they apologized to these students and resolved the issue with the intervention of the police without going to court.
