In order to express their solidarity with the family of murdered Harishnavi, who was raped prior to her killing, condemning the murder and demanding immediate investigation and arrest of culprit/ culprits responsible for rape and murder, a complete Hartal in the North is observed.
Traders Association of the North decided to close their shop in unison from 800 hrs to 1000 hrs. All private bus services cancelled, while Ceylon Transport Board buses operate as usual.
