Sri Lankan has sent its first full contingent to Haiti
Sri Lanka has promised to look into allegations that 108 of its UN peacekeepers in Haiti paid for sex, in some cases with underage girls.
The men are being sent home after being accused of sexual misconduct and abuse.
Officials say the law will take its course once the soldiers arrive back in Sri Lanka, but warn that little tangible evidence has been produced.
In the past, UN peacekeepers have been involved in a series of sex scandals, including this year in Ivory Coast.
