The CID and the Army had conducted an investigation to determine whether some Chinese nationals working at a tank renovation site in Tissamaharama had violated the law due to the uniform they were wearing and found that the workers were wearing overalls, co-Cabinet spokesman Minister Keheliya Rambukwelle said.
“The investigators found that the Chinese nationals had not violated any law. They have used ‘overalls’. There are actually several institutions in Colombo where labourers wear similar overalls,” the Minister said.
He also denied allegations that the Chinese nationals at the work site belonged to the Chinese military.
When questioned by a journalist whether Sri Lankans, too, could wear similar costumes and move about; the Minister said that certain organisations that issued uniforms to staff needed to get approval for the design of the clothing and there would be no issue if such approval had been taken.
