Rugby in Sri Lanka plummeted to a new low when the Selection Committee decided to resign yet again. Chairman of the Selection Committee Rohan Abeykoon said that they had only returned to help Sri Lanka rugby out in the wake of the appointment of an Interim Committee for rugby and assurances from the Sports Minister that he would not overturn the Selection Committee decision with regard to the captain.

Four more athletes to be questioned

Police are on the trail of four more leading Lankan athletes with regard to human smuggling.
On Thursday Fort Magistrate Gihan Pilapitiya imposed a one year jail term suspended for ten years on athletes Prasanna Amerasekera, G. Geetha Nandani and Lalani Shanthi Irangani and also imposed a Rs. 100,000 fine on each of the athletes also on charges of human smuggling.
