 (Lanka-e-News-20.Feb.2012, 5.30AM) More information has leaked out on the recent killing of the young fisherman Anthony Fernando and injuring three others critically at Chilaw, confirming that it was a result of a premeditated plan and a direct order given by Gotabaya Rajapakse.On the day previous to the day of the murder when the fishermen staged massive demonstrations at the Chilaw Town against the ruthless fuel price hikes, Gotabaya Rajapakse had given orders that the protests shall be quelled even by shooting. To accomplish this task he had chosen the same DIG Ravi Wijegunawardena who orchestrated the murder of Roshan Chanaka at Katunayake on an earlier occasion. It is therefore very clear that Gota chose Ravi who was condemned by one and all for the Katunayake brutal murder, because he wanted Ravi to give another repeat performance . Although Gota learnt a lesson following the ruthless Katunayake killing ,however decided to give a repeat performance on a foolproof murder plot. He had instructed Ravi , ‘we will organize a ‘mixed team’ and attack so that the persons who do the shooting will not be identifiable. Accordingly , his mixed team had comprised of the Police, STF soldiers and Gajaba regiment soldiers . Gota’s favorite regiment being ‘Gajaba’ , it was therefore enlisted. More >> |
