The human remains of Kumara will be despatched to Sri Lanka on December 6 through Sri Lankan Airlines at state cost. The human remains will be received by the next-of-kin at the BIA.&nbsp;

The foreign ministry is coordinating the matter. The Sri Lanka High Commission in Islamabad has requested an investigation report from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Pakistan regarding the death of Kumara.
