In a Tyson-style attack, a British national had allegedly bitten off an ear of a Sri Lankan at a star class hotel in Colombo. He was arrested by the Fort police and produced before the Colombo Fort Magistrate who released him on bail.

Fort police said the complainant who resided in Kalubowila alleged that he was assaulted by a foreigner and further alleged that his right ear had also been bitten off at the hotel party.

The complainant had told police, that a foreign woman had been dancing with them when he was allegedly assaulted by the foreigner.

    This person needs to feel the full force of the law. We cannot and must not tolerate such savage behavior.

    Sure, may I add the Indian and the Chinese who visit Sri Lanka on tourist visas and work in Sri Lanka. Some are sort of labourer on large civil engineering projects.
