In his final week in office, Sri Lanka's outgoing president has pardoned a death row killer who murdered a Swedish teenager in 2005. The girl's skull was smashed into 64 pieces during the horrific attack.
Yvonne Jonsson, who had dual Sri Lankan and Swedish nationality, was killed in the stairwell of the Colombo apartment building her family was living in at the time. The attack had come after an argument between the teenager and killer Jude Jayamaha, then aged 19, who reportedly hails from an influential family.
Jayamaha was initially sentenced to 12 years, but his appeal ended in him being sentenced to death. Confirming the decision to pardon and release him, President Maithripala Sirisena said Jayamaha was imprisoned "over an incident of impatience" and had served his term with good behavior.
In a Facebook post, Jonsson's sister
wrote in detail about her family's heartbreak over news of the killer's pardon and release, rejecting any claims the murder was an accident or minor incident. Instead she insisted Jayamaha had planned the attack, waiting outside the apartment for his victim and chasing her down in the brutal assault.
