I’m shocked to hear of the recent incidents reported from around #lka on the horrific displays of cruelty to animals, the most recent been the killing of dogs in #nikaweratiya. I have informed authorities to take any measure and action in order to put an end to these atrocities.
On my instructions, my secretary has discussed with officials of Facebook, who have agreed that its platform will not be used for spreading hate speech and inciting violence. As such, I instructed TRCSL to remove the temporary ban on Facebook with immediate effect.
