Gotabaya Rajapaksa left for the USA

Former Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa left for the United States of America on Monday (26) morning.

He had left for Dubai via the VIP Terminal at the Bandaranaike International Airport, and thereafter will fly to the US.

He was accompanied by former First Lady Ayoma Rajapaksa, son Daminda Rajapaksa, daughter-in-law S. D. Rajapaksa, and his grandchild.

Gotabaya Rajapaksa fled the island nation in July 2022 after a huge crowd stormed his official residence following months of demonstrations sparked by an unprecedented economic crisis.

The 73-year-old announced his resignation from Singapore and spent weeks under virtual house arrest at a Bangkok hotel before his return late on September 2nd.
