The body of a youth has reportedly been discovered at a residence belonging to UPFA MP Wimal Weerawansa in Hokandara, Thalangama.

The deceased has been identified as 24-year-old Lahiru Dissanayake, who is said to be a close friend of former Minister’s son.

The youth, who frequently visits the Weerawansa’s residence in Hokandara, had arrived at the house last night and stayed.

Based on a complaint received by Talangama Police in this regard, a statement has reportedly been recorded from Mrs Weerawansa.
