Former Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa who had to go into hiding after angry crowds besieged his official residence Temple Trees on 9 May came to Parliament yesterday.
Rajapaksa who was taken to the Navy Camp in Trincomalee came to the House with his son MP Namal Rajapaksa.
He has been allocated a seat in the front row on the Government side as he is a former President.
It is the first time the former PM and his son were seen in public after the 9 May incident where a group of his supporters unleashed violence on protesters who had camped outside Temple Trees as well as at Galle Face.
