Amid the chaos, videos emerged of suitcases being loaded on a Sri Lanka Navy ship. Local media said that the suitcases belonged to President Gotabaya Rajapaksa.</p>
<p>
The visuals show three men carrying large suitcases onto the ship SLNS Gajabahu. The three men are in a hurry and can be seen running in the video.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
&quot;The Harbour Master at the Colombo Port said that a group boarded the SLNS Sindurala and SLNS Gajabahu and left the port,&rdquo; News1 Channel reported.</p>
<p>
He said he cannot provide details of the manifest or about those who boarded the vessels, the channel said.</p>
<p>
Earlier today, private broadcasters also showed what appeared to be a vehicle convoy belonging to the president at Sri Lanka&#39;s main international airport, but there was no confirmation on whether he had left the island.</p>
<p>
Rajapaksa&#39;s current whereabouts are unknown and protesters have taken over both his officer and official residence.</p>
