Civil Organizations oppose govt.’s new policy : eat, drink, enjoy Wesak , New year and Christmas with murderers of Rajapakse era (video)
(Lanka-e-News - 20.Sep.2017, 11.45PM) President Maithripala Sirisena is
involved in ‘deals’ with Rajapakses and is protecting the criminals of
the Rajapakse era , the UNP members of the consensual government allege.
In much the same way , the SLFP members of the consensual government
are of the view that prime minister Ranil Wickremesinghe is involved in
‘deals’ with the criminals of the Rajapakse era.
Irrespective of these two allegations , it is by now an acknowledged
truth that the consensual government is bent on protecting a section of
the criminals of the Rajapakse era as a matter of policy. This is solely
because of the government’s announcement it is its policy that the new
law will apply only to the forced disappearances after October 2017 ,
and not those of the past .
In other words what the government ruthlessly saying is , ‘we must eat
,drink and enjoy New year , Wesak sight seeing and Christmas as though
no such crimes were committed ’ together with the criminals of the
Rajapakse era who committed the heinous crimes of abduction and
disappearances .
Resisting this new policy of the government , Gamini Viyangoda the
popular secretary of the Civil organizations on the 18 th said , ‘what
is important to us are the abductions of yesterday and the rights of
those abducted more than the abductions of tomorrow’
Viyangoda made this revelation when addressing a conference of a series
that is being held Island wide titled ‘a new constitution for a new
country.’ Viyangoda speaking at the conference held at Rajarata
Broadcasting service auditorium , Anuradhapura on the 18 th made the
above comments.
