Army chief and Cabinet say ‘No’ to Rajapakses :Latter desperately request Ranil for security , and hand over power

(Lanka-e-News- 09.Jan.2015, 5.00PM) The Medamulana Rajapakse family having failed miserably after making frantic attempts using its every trump to illicitly perpetuate its brutal ,corrupt, murderous despotic power, had a little while ago accepted defeat amidst its sure humiliating Presidential election defeat which is ominously staring in its face, left the Temple Trees after acknowledging its defeat .

It is an incontrovertible fact that the Rajapakse family regime became most notorious during its 9 year despotic reign for making Sri Lanka (SL) once reputed as the pearl of the Indian ocean a killing field causing abductions and disappearance of innocent citizens, committing murders on unarmed citizens and creating a fear psychosis among peace loving citizens via its white Van syndrome , and robbing even every rice grain of this valuable pearl .

Medamulana Rajapakse who held elections two years ahead of the scheduled date with the hope of clinging on to evil power , did everything possible violating elections laws brazenly and blatantly during this entire election period to plunder victory including ,unlawfully distributing 800,000 SIL clothes ; collecting identity cards slyly paying Rs. 5000.00 for each identity card; and finally leaving no stone unturned by resorting to every sordid and surreptitious activity in order to obstruct the announcement of election results by going so far as even to de activate the elections department server yesterday night.

Yet, the common opposition candidate based on his overwhelming popularity was able to brave all the most formidable odds including glaring election malpractices and frauds of the Rajapakses , to win convincingly by 700,000 votes approximately, with an absolutely clear majority .

In the end ,as a last ditch effort Mahinda Rajapakse and Gotabaya Rajapakse have summoned their two security councils and sought to continue their power using military power .However , when the army chief has declined this request , an attempt was made to perpetuate the power with the help of the Cabinet which was summoned by them for this purpose .The senior cabinet members have also disagreed with this proposal . Consequently the Rajapakse brothers , Mahinda and Gotabaya were left in the lurch . Because of the pleas made to the people to turn against the conspiracies hatched by the Rajapakses , the latter were gripped by the fear of the same magnitude as that was faced by Rajapakses’ bosom friend Gadaffi in his final days when he met with a most humiliating and disastrous end ,even after hiding in a culvert to protect himself .

When every subterfuge and conspiracy to continue illegally in power flopped , Mahinda and Gotabaya had invited opposition leader Ranil Wickremesinghe and stated they are prepared to hand over their reins , and begged from Ranil like beaten dogs standing on their hind legs ,to provide security to them and those who supported them , after admitting their defeat.

The opposition leader has consented to this .

By now , Mahinda had left the Temple Trees . People have at last won in their struggle , and emerged victorious. . Of course , the vanquished should not be persecuted , but at the same time no mercy should be shown towards murderers and robbers of national resources and assets.

Where is the charge sheet? SL needs to put more than one hundred of the Rajapakse rapists, murderers and plunderers on house arrest; it is only then the new government will have any credibility

The contribution of the Tamils and Muslims in favour of My3 in such great numbers not only from North and East {Mullaitivu,Kilinochchi,Trincomalee,Batticaloa,Puttalam} but also from the upcountry and elsewhere should be acknowledged. If not this victory is not possible and Rajapakse would have captured the power again as it happened in 2005. Even the efforts of the Sinhala academics and intelegentia (Friday Forum,Universty Teachers et al) would not have sufficed to defeat the incumbent President as the margin was so little.

Please keep this article for a long time.This should be an eye-opener for those who think that the MaRa clan acknowledged the defeat willingly.
