Home | British Transport Police Oct 27 (Daily MIrror) - The UK police have made inquiries into a complaint regarding the alleged harassment of a domestic worker at the official residence of Sri Lankan High Commissioner in London Rohitha Bogollagama.

The domestic aide, who is a cook serving in the residence, complained to the police on emergency contact line through one of his friends.

The police have arrived at the residence and inquired about the complaint that someone inside the house was trying to commit suicide.

However, no legal action has been initiated.

A diplomatic source said the police did not enter the house because of diplomatic immunity.

Later, the domestic worker was sent back to Sri Lanka using an emergency passport.

Yes it's true. Thanks to Mrs Santhi Rajakaruna in the UK Birmingham saved chef Maduranga's life by contacting West Midlands police and West Midlands police contacted London police. Otherwise you never know what will happen to Maduranga as he was about to suicide because of Family Bollagama's life threatening pressure. All my respects goes to Mrs Santhi Rajakaruna.

This high Commissioner is well known for his luxury life and spending government money unnecessarily. This guy has to be replaced immediately.

They get cooks, servants all paid by the tax money of Sri Lankans. What a life they are having. What a waste of money for the little things they do in their foreign countries. The benefits given to the high commissioners and their families living by the tax money of Sri Lankans, must be reviewed and revised.

Mrs Rohitha is known well for her unruly behaviours. One in Colombo and one is the East, Police had to be involved. Now in the UK.

Please close down unproductive high commissions and embassies. Sri Lanka should share its representatives with multiple countries. Instead of high commissioners SL can have councillors to cut down tax payers money. There should be a service examination to select our representatives among civil servants. STRICTLY NO POLITICAL APPOINTMENTS PLEASE.

Not LTTErs but rather abuses by officials the problem Sunday, 27 October 2024 05:31 PM

Problem in Australia was not paying the minimum Australian pay for the type of work the domestic was doing. Sri Lankans officials cannot bring Sri Lankans to work as servants and pay below the particular countries minimum wage for such work. That's illegal. Threatening and abusing servants, and not even giving them phone like what happened in England is another abuse by the official involved.
