Conspiracy to murder Ranil : Thevaraperuma with sharp knife makes first move though futile

(Lanka-e-News- 06.Feb.2014, 11.00PM) Kalutara district UNP M.P. PalithaThevaraperuma had scolded opposition and UNP leader Ranil Wickremesinghe in foul language in Parliament yesterday and on two occasions tried to assault the latter . Based on information reaching Lanka e news , this is part of a conspiracy to assassinate the opposition leader and behind this is Sujeewa Senasinghe .
This is the first time attempts were made at a Parliament group meeting of the UNP to attack its own leader . It was the grouse of Thevaraperuma that while his son is seeking candidature for Matugama provincial council (PC) at the forthcoming PC elections , another candidate is being given nomination. Thevaraperuma was under the influence of liquor at the time he acted violent .
The nomination list is not discussed at the parliamentary group meeting and such discussions are held at the Sri Kotha meetings . When Thevaraperuma was therefore talking out of point and place , the opposition chief organizer has pointed this out , whereupon Thevaraperuma has flown into a rage and tried to assault Ranil while abusing him in filth. Ranjan Ramanayake and John Amaratunge have then taken Ranil away from the scene.
Thereafter a second incident had occurred near the entrance to the speaker’s chamber in the second floor . Thevaraperuma who came with his arms around the shoulder of Range Bandara had taken his arms off and again attempted to assault Ranil while scolding him. With him were Anoma Gamage , Thalatha Atukorale and some others .Ranjan Ramanayake , Gayantha Karunatileke and some other MPs have then taken Ranil along safely for meals which was being served at that time. Later on , Thevaraperuuma while leaving had exclaimed to the Parliament working staff ‘ I could not kill him.’
It has been discovered that Thevaraperuma had brought a sharp knife with a detachable handle made of a horn of a bull . He had stealthily taken it into the Parliament by hiding the blade of the knife like a bookmark hidden inside a book while concealing the detachable handle inside his pocket . After taking them in he had fixed them together .
Thevaraperuma prior to his plan to stab the opposition leader has along with 11 others taken liquor and incited them. All of them have been identified by now. The suspicion that Senasinghe was behind this was confirmed when he had been earlier on proudly announcing that a serious incident is going to take place in Parliament today. Moreover, at the group meeting , it was Senasinghe who had first made provocative statements and dragged the nomination list issue into the discussion . It is then and only then Thevareperuma who was drunk had tried to stab Ranil , but the knife kept hidden by him by that time had been taken into the possession of Range Bandara without Thevaraperuma’s knowledge. Ranil had received a shot to his arm when Thevaraperuma turned aggressive.
It is worthy of note that although Thevaraperuma was trying to attack Ranil on the ground that his son was not given nomination at the forthcoming PC election , the opposition leader had nothing to do with the nomination list. The nomination list was prepared by the leadership council via the nomination committee appointed by it.
Meanwhile Thevaraperuma’s son had not met lawyer Ajith P. Perera in charge of nominations for Kalutara even by noon yesterday to sign his nomination paper . He had finally arrived late , but without the necessary birth certificate .
In the circumstances , it is a clear index that yesterday’s episode is part of a calculated premeditated conspiracy to assassinate the opposition leader , and Senasinghe had been fully aware of it ahead. A snake (Le mapilla) found some time ago in the official opposition room of Ranil Wickremesinghe is also strongly suggestive there is a cold conspiracy to murder the opposition leader . We shall reveal the behind the scene conspirators as and when we receive information in that connection.
