Video shows police officer attacking protester

A video footage captured following the joint opposition-led protest held at Hambantota today, showed a senior police officer assaulting an arrested protester.

Meanwhile, posting the video on his Twitter page, MP Namal Rajapaksa asked, “A.S.P. Daluwaththa, is this Yahapalanaya?”

When contacted, Police spokesman Ruwan Gunasekara said he was yet to see the video.
