The special affection shown by Minister Wimal Weerawansa towards the late Bharatha Lakshman Premachandra’s daughter, Hirunika Premachandra has captured President Mahinda Rajapaksa’s attention.

Hirunika has been severely criticizing the President following Bharatha’s killing. Therefore, the President is angry that Wimal Weerawansa was invited as the chief guest at Bharatha’s memorial ceremony and the frequent visits made by Wimal to Hirunika’s residence.

The President has asked Wimal’s nemesis Kaduwela Mayor, Buddhadasa to question the work carried out by Wimal during the next Colombo District Development Committee meeting.
