The MP noted that the presence of these familiar names raises questions about the company's operations.According to Jayasekera, Sri Lankan war heroes have allegedly been sold to the Russians by Avant Garde.He said that these servicemen undergo 14 days of training before being deployed to conflict zones.Tragically, when injured in battle, they do not receive adequate compensation. Payments have been withheld for approximately four months, leaving them with only Rs. 50,000/- for their entire service period.<a href="https://www.newsfirst.lk/2024/05/13/sri-lankan-war-heroes-sold-to-russians-by-avant-garde" target="_blank">https://www.newsfirst.lk/2024/05/13/sri-lankan-war-heroes-sold-to-russians-by-avant-garde</a></blockquote>
