Priyantha Kumara’s remains arrive in SL, sent for autopsy
The remains of Priyantha Kumara, the Sri Lankan export manager who was brutally killed by a mob in Sialkot on Friday, arrived in Colombo on Monday evening on a Sri Lankan Airlines flight from Lahore.
His remains were taken to the Negombo Hospital where an autopsy will be conducted and the body is expected to be released to the family later Tuesday.
Priyantha's wife and his other family members were present when his remains arrived at the BIA.
His wife, Nilushi told Daily Mirror that following the autopsy, they will receive his body in a sealed coffin afterwhich a funeral will be held as per the family's wishes.
Priyantha's brutal massacre by a mob in Sialkot has sent shockwaves throughout Sri Lanka and Pakistan while over 130 people have been arrested by Pakistani police since the killing on Friday.
Nilushi has urged the Pakistani government for a thorough investigation into his killing and has urged both the Sri Lankan and Pakistani government not to sweep it under the carpet. (JAMILA HUSAIN)
