Vice-Chancellor Professor Jayantha Lal Ratnasekera said they have been suspended after it was found that they were involved in a disputed situation between the second and third year students on June 18.
Accordingly, steps have been taken to suspend the students until the investigations into the incident are completed.
A committee of five doctors and professors has been appointed to investigate the incident.
