Four persons including the son of former state minister and Samagi Jana Balawegaya Hambantota District Parliamentarian Dilip Wedaarachchi have been arrested for having assaulted a couple following an argument over an accident in Maharagama, police said.

They said when the suspect was driving along the High Level Road in Maharagama, his car collided with another car on Wednesday early in the morning.

It was reported that the suspects had allegedly threatened and assaulted the couple inside the car that involved in the accident.

The MP's son and another were arrested soon after the incident and another two were arrested later following a complaint lodged by the victims.

However, the suspects were released on police bail after both parties have agreed for an amicable settlement.(DSB)

Why amicable settlement ???? I'm sure the culprit is the ministers son. The guilty should be punished.
