Abstract
On January 11, 2024, the Aruna newspaper reported the arrest of two individuals in Bandaragama for verbally sexually harassing three female police officers in civilian clothes. The report included an inappropriate cartoon that stereotyped women as sexual objects and used the derogatory term “නාම්බන්” (namban) in the headline to describe those arrested. This coverage violates media ethical guidelines.
