Violent incidence[edit]
In 2000, she and her husband were violently attacked by the Presidential Security Division (PSD) of president Chandrika Kumaratunga and threatened with death if they performed at anti-government events. The attack sparked a protest by Dharmasiri Bandaranayake who thereafter also received death threats. In the wake of these developments, Artists Against Violence (AAV) was founded.[2] Ten officers of the PSD were arrested for the attacks and given jail sentences in 2013, but one year later pardoned by president Mahinda Rajapaksa.[3]
