Govt. failure to implement leasing relief claimed a life: Sajith

11 Jun 2020

Former Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa today claimed that the government's failure to implement the leasing relief for three-wheel drivers claimed the life of the Chairman of the Lanka Self Employed Professionals’ National Three-Wheeler Federation, Sunil Jayawardena. Jayawardena was assaulted to death yesterday following a heated argument that broke out in front of a leasing company. He had reportedly appeared for a three-wheeler driver whose vehicle had been seized for defaulting leasing payments. Jayawardena was to contest the August 5 general elections as an independent candidate. Premadasa said the government in March announced a leasing relief for three-wheel drivers but failed to implement it. "The government had not communicated to leasing companies about the measure taken and due to this many three-wheelers have been seized by leasing companies." He said the government's announcement was merely a political tactic to garner the support of the public. In March this year the government under its coronavirus relief programme announced that charging of leasing installments from three-wheeler owners was suspended for 6 months.
