Mahinda rebukes nomination board in filth, 

assaults Susil!

Tuesday, 14 July 2015

Showing his usual self, former president Mahinda Rajapaksa rebuked UPFA general secretary Susil Premajayantha and the nomination board in filth and played hell at the home of former minister Felix Perera at Keppetipola Mawatha, Colombo 05 on the night of July 12, an eyewitness told Lanka News Web.

Mahinda has got to know that Hiru Media Network has decided to attack him at the general election after its owner Rayynor Silva has been told that the ex-president had opposed his brother Duminda Silva being given nominations, and immediately after arrival, he has ordered the nomination board to give nominations to Duminda. Then Premajayantha has told him, “Isn’t it you who wanted Duminda cut saying Rayynor is an UNPer? Now, what are you saying? We have finalized the lists. Nothing can be done hereafter.”

Mahinda confronted Premajayantha and slapped him several times. Premajayantha dropped the files in his hands, held his head in his hands and sat down on the floor. Then, several persons had brought Mahinda from the first floor to the ground floor and sent him to a meeting in Piliyandala. As Premajayantha’s condition was not good, he was admitted to Nawaloka Hospital for treatment.

Ex-minister Dinesh Gunawardena told Mahinda, who was at the Piliyandala meeting, that the UPFA general secretary has been admitted to Nawaloka Hospital. A confused Mahinda immediately went to Nawaloka Hospital, knowing that he would be in trouble if things went too far. He had gone to Premajayantha, apologized and pleaded with him to forget the incident. Premajayantha remained silent. After the ex-president left, he told a person nearby, “This devil can never be corrected. This is what we have done by giving him nominations instead of letting him remain in the Medamulana jungle.”
