Police launch tear gas at medical students over anti-government protest

Date:

The Medical Faculty Student Action Committee today (29) organised a march in Colombo demanding the stepping down of the President and the government.

The group walked to Colombo Fort and tried to enter the GotaGoGama agitation site in GalleFace.

The Police had set up roadblocks near the World Trade Centre and as the medical students attempted to remove the roadblocks and move forward, the Police launched tear gas and water cannons to dissolve the march.
