(Lanka-e-News -07.jan.2016, 10.15AM) Some members who claim to be in the united opposition and engaged in national politics have begun reviving the bogus ‘chantra manthra’ that the country is going to be divided, State minister Palitha Range Bandara revealed. Some of these individuals by putting forward the army officers who are responsible for the disappearance of journalist Ekneliyagoda as a shield ,are seeking in vain to create racial discord and hatred, the minister added. The minister made these comments when he addressed a function at Puttalam yesterday (06).
The extreme teeny weeny group of racists who called Ekneliyagoda a ‘Tiger’ have to be reminded of the rights and freedom of journalists . Is punishment and causing disappearances the answer to journalists who have the democratic right to express their contradictory views ? The media Institutions and media personnel must take a decision to agitate to ban the media conferences of racists who unrelentingly adhere to the view that journalists who express opposing views shall be punished and liquidated, the minister exhorted.
The State minister for skills development and vocational training went on to comment as follows :
''Some bankrupt discarded politicians are chanting their same old ‘ Manthara’ that the government through the new constitution is seeking to divide the country. Now , people cannot be duped as before by these manthra chanthras. The country was freed from the biggest grip of racist jokers on January 8 th 2015.
Now a few small sprats are holding media discussions desperately to avert several big sharks from imminent imprisonment . The law is no respector of rank and status of the wrongdoer. Whether the criminal is a member of the forces or any other is irrelevant. If a member of the forces have caused abductions and liquidations of unarmed civilians to serve political motives and agendas , that member has to be meted out punishment.These sprats are shedding crocodile tears not out of love for the forces , but to rescue their ‘ boss’ who under the cover of the forces gave ruthless orders to the murder squads .''
