A suspicious incident occurred today involving former President Maithripala Sirisena during his visit to Kurunegala. Mr. Sirisena, who was scheduled to attend a function, encountered a peculiar situation at the Kurunegala Interchange of the Central Expressway.
As Mr. Sirisena’s car approached the payment counter to exit the interchange, the security gate unexpectedly fell back onto the vehicle after being raised. The former president raised concerns about the incident with the officers from the elite security department responsible for his safety. Notably, a similar incident had occurred before, prompting security personnel to report their suspicions to their superiors.
An investigation is currently underway to determine whether there is any connection between the two incidents. Authorities are diligently working to ensure the safety and security of all individuals involved, including former President Maithripala Sirisena.
