Sri Lanka: Gotabaya Rajapaksa resigns after fleeing Sri Lanka
Protesters celebrate in Colombo after Gotabaya Rajapaksa stands down, having fled to Singapore. …
“Earlier they fooled us [in saying] that he would go. It’s the same thing happening now, they have received the resignation letter but the speaker says they have to legalise it. I don’t know what there is to legalise. So it’s really crazy,” said Suzette Fernando, who was among the crowds celebrating.
