Sri Lanka warns envoys

By Nirupama Subramanian

COLOMBO, JULY 5. Sri Lanka has warned members of the diplomatic community based here not to make public comments on its ``internal affairs'' and said this would be considered breach of protocol.

The Sri Lankan Foreign Ministry has said that any comment that diplomatic representatives wanted to make should be routed through it. Sri Lanka has come in for criticism from India, the U.S. and the U.K. on air-raids it carried out in the Jaffna peninsula.
