The parents of the child who tragically passed away in Kotahena, along with the police team conducting the investigation, met at the Prime Minister’s Office today for a detailed discussion.
The meeting was also attended by Minister of Health and Mass Media Dr. Nalinda Jayatissa, Minister of Women and Child Affairs Saroja Paulraj, and several other officials.
During the meeting, the police team was instructed to carry out a prompt, fair, and impartial investigation into the incidents that allegedly took place at the school and tuition class, which are believed to have contributed to the child’s death.
The Ministry of Education is currently conducting an internal inquiry to assess whether the appropriate procedures were followed effectively from the moment the incident was reported.
In addition, a three-member committee chaired by Consultant Paediatrician Dr. Asvini Fernando has been appointed to take necessary measures to strengthen coordination among government institutions responsible for responding to such cases. (PM Media)
