Sri Lankan PM is confident that PM Imran Khan will punish Sialkot culprits!
It was on Friday, when in a horrible incident when a mob of factory workers lynched its Sri Lankan manager Priyantha Kumara to death and burned his body in Sialkot.
Following the incident, Sri Lankan Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa on Saturday expressed shock at the brutal Sialkot lynching of a Sri Lankan national, but expressed confidence in PM Imran Khan’s commitment to punishing all those involved.
PM Mahinda Rajapaksa in a tweet expressed his grief tweeted, “Shocking to see the brutal and fatal attack on Priyantha Diyawadana by extremist mobs in #Pakistan. My heart goes out to his wife and family. #SriLanka and her people are confident that PM @ImranKhanPTI will keep to his commitment to bring all those involved to justice.”
