Land/property ownership in Sri Lanka for British citizen

Hi,

is there any law in Sri Lanka that prohibits land / property ownership for foreign nationals ?

what happens to the property owned by a Sri Lankan born person who gets citizenship in the UK (hence losing SL citizenship) ?

any links advice on this please ?

thanks
