Date:

Former President Gotabaya Rajapaksa who according to foreign reports is currently in Bangkok, Thailand is expected to return to Sri Lanka on August 20, political sources disclosed.

The ousted Sri Lankan head of state is expected to return to the island on a private jet, following concerns on his safety due to which security officials were deployed outside the hotel he was residing.

Meanwhile, the question of who paid off the private jets utilised by the former President is currently among the hot topics on the political arena, and even a group of lawyers are preparing to question the government in this regard, sources added.
