Speaker Karu Jaysuriya said today he would look into how the report of the committee that investigated violent scenes in Parliament was leaked to the media before it was presented in the House.

The Speaker said this in response to a request by MP Namal Rajapaksa. Mr. Rajapaksa said the report which was to be with the Speaker had somehow been leaked to the media, and it should be investigated. (Kelum Bandara and Yohan Perera)
