A couple from Trincomalee who were separated due to war have reunited after 33 years.
During the outbreak of the war, the wife and her child moved safely to the Colombo area.
Since then, she has been staying in public places such as temples and churches without any contact with her husband and has been surviving with the help of those who come there.
In this case, he was admitted to the Colombo National Hospital for treatment a few days ago.
While being treated there, the hospital staff revealed the identity of the woman and her husband and relatives searched and found her.
The union of the couple after 33 years was an emotional outpouring among those present as they expressed their love.
Information about the child brought by the woman is not yet known.
