🍷 Challenge accepted! Can Australian wine pair with Sri Lanka's favourite local dishes? We challenged Australian wine expert Darren Gall to find out. Watch the pairing—and tell us, would you give it a try? 🇦🇺🇱🇰 #AustralianWine #SriLankanFood #AustraliaSriLanka #WinePairing
. @AusHCSriLanka’s Matthew Duckworth used Beira Lake as a backdrop to pitch Australian wine with local cuisine. The clip may mask the stench, but it still shows the polluted green water. Worse, no one appears to have told him that alcohol advertising is illegal in Sri Lanka!
Admiral of the Fleet Karannagoda, 73, released on five million rupee surety bail.
Sri Lanka’s highest-ranking naval officer, Admiral of the Fleet Wasantha Karannagoda, was arrested by @CIABOC_SriLanka over a corruption charge for bending rules to recruit unqualified Yoshitha, the son of then president @PresRajapaksa and send him to Dartmouth using state funds
Sri Lanka’s oldest zoo marked its 90th anniversary today. Dehiwala Zoo remains a key attraction for schoolchildren and tourists. Some animals pictured today. #DehiwalaZoo #90thAnniversary
Britain sanctioned Wasantha Karannagoda in March 2025, accusing him of human rights violations, including extrajudicial killings. Karannagoda is accused in the abduction and killing of 11 young men between 2008 and 2009 for ransom.

Here is a list of pyramid scams identified by @CBSL. High time they also add the “luxury” property developer scam promising flashy returns and a route to launder black money.
@AfzanAfzann Yasinbawa Jegilpas, SIS sergeant and Suwandarala Sudunilamegay Sarath Samantha, Sub iIspector (intelligence).
As Suresh Sallay, the third suspect in the ongoing magisterial inquiry into the Easter Sunday attacks, gave up his fast today, the court ordered him to hand over the passwords to his iPhone and laptop. Today’s highlights attached:
Minister @NalindaJay announcing the end of the state of emergency imposed shortly after Cyclone Ditwah.
The government has allowed the state of emergency, declared shortly after Cyclone Ditwah, to lapse, Minister Nalinda Jayatissa says. With this, the office of the Commissioner General of Essential Services also ceases to exist.

Both Sri Lanka and the @IMFNews have demonstrated considerable flexibility in implementing the $2.9 billion bailout programme. This mutual understanding and cooperation has enabled the reform programme to proceed smoothly, without major obstacles, says @anuradisanayake .
Sarath Fonseka, as Army Chief, never missed a chance to sing in public. Sri Lanka’s new Navy Chief, by contrast, looks almost professionally restrained. Still, the Navy band might want to keep itself ready. A polite round of applause, then, for Admiral Damian Fernando.
Singer, stage star and navy officer Damian Fernando appointed new navy commander today by @anuradisanayake
