Wall of Dutch building at Galle Fort collapses

A wall of the Dutch era building that is situated within the Galle Fort collapsed last night.

The wall was part of the old post office and according to officials, no one was injured.

They said it could have caused a loss of lives had it collapsed during the daytime.

The building, constructed in the Dutch era, was in a dilapidated condition and the post office had been relocated elsewhere. (D.G. Sugathapala)
