Homosexuality is a mental disorder: SJB candidate Kavinda Jayawardena

Samagi Jana Balawegaya Gampaha District candidate Dr. Kavinda Jayawardena said homosexuality was a mental disorder and he did not support the rights of the LGBTQ community.

In a YouTube interview, Jayawardena said legitimizing homosexuality was against the wishes of the Catholic Church of which he is a member.

“My religion will never endorse that and I also do not support rights of this community,” he said.

Jayawardena was recently at the center of a major controversy over a homosexual sex tape. He lodged a complaint with the Police that some party was circulating a homosexual sex tape to tarnish his image.
