Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 You referred to me — “the previous speaker.” He is also a lawyer. The previous speaker was me. Hon. Deputy Chairperson, what you have now presented is also misinformation. If you want, check with the UK visa branch. The visa existed. It was only delayed by a day. There was no case of the visa not being granted.
