Economic Development Minister and brother of President Mahinda Rajapakse, Basil Rajapakse was in for a shock today when a chimpanzee took a swipe at his face while he tried to shake it’s hand while touring the Dehiwala Zoo.
Rajapakse, who shook the chimpanzee’s hand as soon as the animal was brought to him by the zoo employees had to duck when the seemingly quiet chimpanzee all of a sudden took a swipe at the Minister’s face.
However, in all good humour, Rajapakse had a good laugh while the animal was immediately taken away. (Daily Mirror online)
