because of prank of pulling chair when about to sit!

The joke played during school-days on classmates by pulling the chair when just about to sit is prevalent in this country for sometime. Most people do not ever imagine that because of this joke though someone may be subjected to some inconvenience ... it could even go as far as death. 

The story that follows is an incident which took place in a classroom; but at a party. The incident to be related happened recently at Kongahawatta area in Walasmulla. The deceased in this instance is a
39 year old father of one child by the name of Anil Kumara who was a mason by profession. 

He has attended a party organised on November 29th last year on the occasion of a get together of a child of one of his friends. When he had got up from his seat for a moment, a friend who remembered a prank played in school has pushed aside his chair.

On that occasion because of the pain he was gripped with, relatives had taken action to admit him to Katuwana District Hospital. However, as a result of the damage caused to his spinal cord he has faced a somewhat serious condition. Subsequently Anil was directed to Embilipitiya District Hospital was later admitted to Karapitiya Teaching Hospital under medical recommendation.
