Hambantota Mayor Eraj Feranado today claimed it was a toy pistol that he carried when he rushed to the scene to protect the UNP MPs who were being attacked by some villagers and staff of the Hambantota Harbour.

“I went to the scene on receiving a call from UNP MP Nalin Jayamaha asking me to go there. It was I, who protected the UNP MPs from the angry crowd and helped them to leave unharmed,” Mr. Fernando claimed.
