Sunday , 30 December 2012

Defense Ministry Secretary Gottabaya Rajapakse has explicitly told, the arrested four university students detained cannot be released without undergoing rehabilitation. He made this statement to a special interview given to a Colombo media yesterday.

Gottabaya in his interview has said, this issue of not getting released without giving them rehabilitation has been already informed by me to Jaffna university Vice Chancellor including university society and they too have accepted.

He said the four university students who are arrested and detained can be released after undergoing rehabilitation and there is no possibility of releasing them prior to this.

Why Tamil National Alliance parliament members should enter the Jaffna University? What is the work they have there? They are going inside the university and instigating terrorism?

The past incidents have occurred in the backdrop of Tamil National Alliance youth group. We will prove it with evidence.

Students will be released after providing them rehabilitation and this issue has been already informed to Jaffna university Vice Chancellor including university society and they too have accepted it.

Legal action could be taken against the students, but we did not do that. Instead of that we are rehabilitating them was mentioned by him.
