The protesters had taken over the prime minister’s property even after he offered to resign.

After months of angry protests calling for their resignation amid a dire economic crisis, protesters in Sri Lanka are now occupying the residences of the president and prime minister. They continue to come up with creative methods to amuse themselves.

Another video showing them mock-playing wrestling on what appears to be the Prime Minister’s bed is amusing to social media users. After videos of them swimming in the pool, dining in the kitchen, and working out in the gym at the Presidential palace went viral.
