The incident unfolded after the actress had ordered a three-wheeler from a rental service company for a personal requirement. The journey was set to commence from the Katubedda area in Moratuwa to Nugegoda.
During the journey from Katubedda area to Nugegoda, the three-wheeler had abruptly come to a halt by the roadside. The driver, purportedly feigning a technical fault, had disembarked from the three-wheeler and approached the actress who was seated on the back seat.
