(Lanka-e-News-02.March.2014, 3.30PM) The Medamulana backwoods land crocodiles have made it a fashion to appoint ace rogues who had been found guilty by the courts to high positions in the government service. The classic case in point is the appointment of P.B. Jayasundara again to his post as finance Ministry secretary who was found guilty by the Supreme court and declared as a corrupt individual not suitable to hold any post any day . Another such appointment is the elevation of Ajith Rohana who was punished by the SC which identified him as an Alugosuwa (criminal brute), to the post of police media spokesman .The Rajapakses who are devil dancing after keeping the country trampled under their despotic boots are assuming that like them even the foreigners will support their crude and corrupt activities. Based on this criminal hope, a confirmed criminal who was in jail in Lebanon was sent again to the SL embassy in Lebanon via the Diplomatic service . Lebanon on the other hand ,where this criminal K.A. Indraratne was sentenced to jail had deported Indraratne back to SL . Lebanon has described him as a rogue and sent him back without even allowing him to enter the country
. It is to be noted that Lebanon had not only sent him back , but have even drawn flak against MaRa government for sending Indraratne a second time after knowing well of his putrid antecedence. Hence , it is being questioned by one and all whether MaRa government has only JaRas (crooks and frauds) and therefore are finding difficult to select an honest upright individual for such appointments.
This whole disgrace had to be faced by the MaRa government because Indraratne was in Lebanon earlier and had been sentenced to jail over a fraud. After serving his sentence the Lebanon officials have deported Indraratne to SL. It would be interesting to learn that SL under the MaRa regime is the only country in the world that has created a record by sending a fraud as an employee to its foreign service abroad. And the only Minister in SL who can make such a mistake is the bullock of a Minister Dilan Perera and none other.
Dilan had sent a thief and fraud to that country in order to achieve his own criminal agendas.
It is the SL foreign Ministry that should handle the foreign affairs officially , but because similar activities are carried out in Dilan’s foreign employment bureau , the middle east foreign service is in a sorry pickle .
If we are to reveal the truth behind this pickle , we must mention that Sajin Vaas Gunawardena the foreign Ministry monitoring M.P who is functioning as an unofficial foreign Minister , was an individual who was in the Mahara remand prison for ten days in 1997 for defrauding a Korean national investor . Sajin’s father had to sell his property at Wijerama mawatha , and out of its proceeds settle the victim of the fraud , in order to save his son.
In 1994 too , a case was filed against the couple Sajin Vaas Wimalasiri Fernando and Shirani in the district court on charges of cheating in a sum of Rs. 3.5 million .
So this is the sad state of affairs in present SL with the highest in the hierarchy , the President having an affinity for crooks and frauds to man the foreign service and affairs. It is little wonder therefore that the President himself with such a crooked affinity has chosen Sajin Vaas the crook to go abroad to speak on behalf of SL.
No matter what , because of the deportation of Indraratne the criminal by Lebanon , not only the SL embassy in Lebanon but even SL has been subjected to immense disgrace and ignominy. In future the Lebanon government treating the SL embassy there like how stray dogs and rogues are , is inevitable.
