Second in command of SIS with 17 years experience chased away to Jaffna for ‘dishwashing’
(Lanka-e-News- 04.Jan.2014, 4.30PM) The State intelligence service (SIS) is no longer a service that is honestly responsible for the security of the state , but rather it has degenerated into a service comprised of sneaks and backbiters serving the Medamulana Rajapakses for their selfish personal benefits.

This was confirmed well, fully and unequivocally when a most experienced and loyal officer of the SIS who had been in that service for 17 long years devoting his life in the service of the nation was chased out from the SIS most un-ceremonially on the 1 st of January 2014.

Lanka e news wishes to recall a report published by it on the 28 th of October 2013 , wherein it was revealed that a conspiracy is being hatched to weaken the division in the SIS that is directly responsible to the IGP. 

Today this conspiracy took effect .This most duty conscientious , loyal and efficient officer who is so chased out is none other than SSP Nilantha Jayawardena , Deputy Director and second in command of the SIS who for 17 years discharged state intelligence duties with dedication even during the war. It is SIS Director Chandra N. Wakishta DIG , and defense secretary Gotabaya Rajapakse who had jointly conspired and chased him out.

SSP Nilantha Jayawardena who joined the police service as an ASP was in the SIS serving directly under the IGP. Though he ought to have been promoted as the Director , special police division under the SIS itself , as well as he was due for a DIG promotion , he was deprived of these appointments , and driven away as a personal assistant to the senior DIG Pujitha Jayasundara , Jaffna.

All the SSP’s of the north are below him in seniority to Nilantha Jayawardena , yet the latter had been appointed as a mere ordinary personal assistant to the senior DIG of Jaffna instead of being duly appointed as a chief of a division.

Nowhere in the world had such a degrading and demeaning treatment been meted out to an SSP with 17 years experience in the State intelligence service (SIS) . An SSP of his high caliber was never sent to be a ‘dishwasher’ to another police officer , although in Sri Lanka , this type of duty transfers are deemed appropriate only under the “Asia’s miracle in the making” of the Medamulana Rajapakses’ debacle. 

The rest of the officers of the SIS are rudely shocked at the deplorable actions of Medamulana Rajapakses and their police coolies like Wakishta. This action is worst frowned upon by one and all because , even as an honest dedicated officer like Nilantha Jaywardena is being mistreated , another scoundrel of a senior infernal DIG Anura Senanayake , notorious for doing all the sordid biddings of the ruling regime is being mollycoddled and given an extension in service.

A strong reliable State intelligence service must be truly dedicated to serve the security of the State irrespective of the government in power; it is not meant to serve only a ruling government or be changed just to suit the whims and fancies of families of a government in power. 

Governments come and go; family power may hold sway and be in inordinate greed for power for a while , but a State must be an institution created by the people and which protects the country and the people who created it from local and foreign armed intervention, and continue powerfully for a long period of time. This can be socialism or capitalism , but it is for the state to be strong enough to combat the weakening of itself .

Unfortunately however, currently, the target of attack of Medamulana Rajapakses is against the state , its systems. This regime is of the view that a government means governance by a group of thieves , rascals and scoundrels , and is just a den of stateless mafia operators. 

In the circumstances , chasing out Nilantha Jayawardena is another step in that operation of the stateless mafia.
