Parliament’s darkest hour
View(s):
In one of Parliaments most riotous days on Friday, Speaker Karu Jayasuriya is seen being given a cordon of protection by Police who interlocked arms to form a protective human barrier. The seemingly unruffled Speaker is seen speaking into a mic with the Serjeant-At-Arms, Narendra Fernando who is seen holding the Mace. Several MPs and Police Personnel were injured in what was one of the most disgraceful days in the history of Sri Lanka’s Parliament. Pic by Ishanka Sunimal
