Thirty individuals have been arrested for vandalising a stage following a musical concert in Bandarawela yesterday (Jan 23).
The concert was organised by a group of youth in the area who had hired a popular band to perform at the event.
A tense situation arose when the spectators had requested the band to perform a few more songs when the concert was to conclude at 10 pm.

This incident resulted in a few people being injured while also causing damages to the musical instruments on stage.
The suspects are due to be produced before the Bandarawela Magistrates Court today (Jan 24).
