This report is Confirmed false
and is of
Medium Priority.
Here is why -
Our investigation has shown that pictures circulating on social media that President Gotabhaya Rajapaksa was leaving the House when he addressed the UN General Assembly are misleading. Our observation confirmed that from the beginning of the session on September 22, the date on which President Gotabhaya Rajapaksa addressed the CHOGM, the turnout was low and due to Covid - 19 security guidelines, there was a social distance between the leaders who attended the session.
