President Visits Kettarama International Cricket Stadium to ascertain on last night’s incident

President Maithripala Sirisena had this morning visited the R Premadasa International cricket

stadium (Kettarama) this morning to find out to himself what exactly had transpired between two factions inside the Block D of the pavilion during the 3rd One Day International between the touring Pakistani cricket team against Sri Lanka.

The President had personally visited the stadium this morning to ascertain the exact reason for this clash among two factions of the audience as rumours had been spread that it had been communal clash. This hoax news had spread to the foreign media as well.

Sri Lanka is known worldwide as having good sports loving supporters who come to watch international cricket matches. Hence it was surprising for the President to come to know that Sri Lanka’s image had been tarnished in a few hours via several media. The President had personally visited the scene to view and inquire what really had happened during the day and night encounter yesterday as already hoax news had spread internationally tarnishing the good image of our country.
