Wishma's sister, Wayomi, said, "My sister loved Japan. I still can't believe she died in such a terrible situation in Japan. When we returned to Sri Lanka, we said," Why is my daughter? I have to answer my mother's question, "Did you die? I would like to ask for your cooperation so that the truth can be revealed."



A man in his 70s in Tokyo who visited the flower offering said, "I think Mr. Wishma could have lived only half of my life and was regrettable. I want the government to properly deal with the issues of immigration system and detention." I was talking.
