-How Ratwatte was killed slowly but surely by the regime |
(Lanka-e-News -29.Nov.2011,5.00P.M.) Another powerful senior SLFP stalwart General Anuruddha Ratwatte who was a victim of the MaRa regime’s reprehensible and repugnant condom theory passed away yesterday (27). He was the younger brother of the late Sirmavo Ratwatte Dias Bandaranaike , the first female Prime Minister of Sri Lanka and in the world, and uncle of the former President of Sri Lanka (SL) Chandrika Bandaranaike , world’s first female President. He died at the age of 73 . The regime chief attended the funeral yesterday , just a few moments before the ceremonies began, to ward off mounting criticisms . The Senior SLFP seniors who were present on the occasion began leveling grave criticisms against the regime chief who is a SLFPer himself for his unwelcome and unsavory conduct. ‘ The chief who attended the funeral of UNP er Rupa Karunatileke and spent a lot of time there ; he attended the ‘Bana’ sermons when UNP er Aluvihara died , and stayed for hours on end at that funeral house , but arrived at SLFP Ratwatte’s funeral at the last moment and waited only for a few minutes’, they lamented.
