Police fire tear gas at protesters near UGC ( Videos )






University students filed a complaint against the police today at the Human Rights Commission (HRC) of Sri Lanka after the police had assaulted some of them yesterday during a protest in Colombo.

The Inter University Students’ Federation (IUSF) said that 28 students were injured in the assault while 4 students had been arrested.

The police fired tear gas to disperse the university students when they staged a protest opposite the University Grants Commission (UGC) in Colombo.

After holding a protest march from Fort, the students blocked the road opposite the UGC office and staged a protest over several demands.

The police later used tear gas and dispersed the protesting students and assaulted some of them.
