Members of the Pakistani cricket team, who were in Dambulla today, were prevented from entering the Masjidul Khaira mosque in Dambulla for their Friday evening prayers

The decision, which earned the ire of the Pakistani cricket team and its management, was taken by authorities who overlooked the security of the team. The team arrived at Dambulla today for the third and final ODI with Sri Lanka which would take place at the international cricket stadium in Dambulla tomorrow.

Some players of the team were of the view that the incident amounted to an insult to the cricket team of Pakistan.

Following the incident, the Pakistani players had been instructed to go to the mosque in Galewela for their evening prayers. However, defying such instructions, some players had entered the Dambulla mosque and conducted their prayers.

A controversy occurred two years ago surrounding the mosque in Dambulla with several Buddhist groups calling for its demolition.

Riots broke outside the mosque with over 1,000 protesters led by Buddhist monks staged a demonstration calling for the demolition of the Masjidul Khaira mosque in Dambulla.

The protestors were calling for the demolition of the mosque claiming that Dambulla is a holy area exclusive to only Buddhists and that the mosque is situated in a sacred area.

The law and the directives of a foreign nation holds supreme----if that nation told the visitors not to visit the mosque for prayers---that nation has the just right to do so---.

Not at all. Check the VISA documents for example. Also you often require a permit. The rules are laid down. You are allowed entry to a country only if you abide by it's rules and regulations.

Otherwise non Muslims (including Admedis) may decide to visit Mecca for pilgrimage.

Like I said - rules are rules. In fact Sri Lanka is within its rights to cancel the VISA and deport the players who flouted the rules.
