According to the police sources the vehicle carrying MP Sooriyaarachchi has crashed into a tree around 1.15.p.m. when it was slipped off the road due to high speed.

Two of the MPs bodyguards have also been killed and another three who were in the vehicle have suffered serious injuries. The injured have been admitted to Thambuththegama hospital, the sources added.
Police said that the road has been slippery due to the prevailing rainy condition in the area, and the MP's vehicle seemed to have lost its control when taking a sharp turn at a very high speed.
Sripathi Sooriaarachchi MP was a former minister and a key figure in the breakaway Sri Lanka Freedom Party (Mahajana) faction. Also, he was a reputed lawyer and a retired Navy officer.
