The Customs said two containers containing Glyphosate imported by a businessman residing Mahailluppallama would be returned today to the Chinese supplier.

Customs Spokesman Leslie Gamini said the importer had requested the Customs to return the two containers in view of President Maithripala Sirisena’s decision to ban the use of Glyphosate herbicide in Sri Lanka.

China did not feed poison, our own people bought and fed us.

It was a wise move if the authorities returned the containers to the supplier. Otherwise, it will boomerang on them especially in view of the impending generally elections.
