(Lanka-e-News- 16.March.2015, 10.30AM) Brigadier Deshapriya Gunawardena the murderer who shot and killed two students and another youth on Gotabaya’s orders when the unarmed Rathupaswala residents staged protests demanding pure water to drink is still enjoying diplomatic privileges , immunities and perks owing to the lethargy of the chief of the commanding forces , and President Maithripala Sirisena, based on reports reaching Lanka e news.
At the moment this murderer brigadier is working in the office of the Sri Lanka’s (SL) ambassador to Turkey . He is a security advisor there. Ms. Bharathi Wijeratne , the paramour of ex president Mahinda Rajapakse who was the ambassador to Turkey has come back to SL , and is moving heaven and earth plotting to make the murderer brigadier the SL’s acting ambassador in Turkey .
Attempts to make this brutal murderer who committed direct mass murder at Rathupaswala to make him the acting ambassador instead of being hanged or sent to the electric chair , by the government of good governance is indeed most cruel, callous and a gross insult to good governance it is vociferously promoting . What is most irksome and rudely shocking about these attempts is , this acting appointment is sought to be given to this murderer brigadier who described publicly President Mathripala and foreign minister as ‘ponnayahs’ (effeminate gays) , and it is ex president Mahinda who is a true hero.
When Lanka e news inquired into this , a spokesman for the foreign ministry said , when those who were given political appointments under the Rajapakse regime are being recalled to SL , those who were appointed to the foreign service by the defense ministry will be decided by the ministry of defense.
By claiming that the defense ministry is for the security of the government , it is being held that the changes in appointments to foreign service cannot be effected on the unilateral decision of the foreign ministry , and without the approval of the ministry of defense.
Accordingly , not only the brigadier murderer Deshapriya Gunawardena who killed on the orders of Gotabaya at Rathupaswala , but even Major general Sumith Manawadu who on the day of the presidential elections in 2010 held captive the leaders of the Democratic party of the opposition in a hotel illegally ,thereby subjecting them to humiliation and degrading treatment , will continue to enjoy the diplomatic privileges , perks and immunities .
In the circumstances, it is the absolute responsibility of the incumbent President Mathripala as the minister of defense who professed publicly to restore the due status of the judiciary and uphold the rule of law ,to take a decision immediately by recommending to the foreign ministry to call back the murderer brigadier who while being attached to the defense ministry acting on the instructions of Gotabaya committed the brutal murders at Rathupaswala . Moreover , charges should be filed not only against him but even the ex defense secretary Gotabaya duly under the law.
Maithripala Sirisena who did not utter a word when he was in that cabinet of ministers then despite the huge public outcry against those cold blooded murders most foul , should now at least demonstrate truly ,sincerely and practically that he is acting in pursuance of his much hyped good governance . It is only by such action he can atone for the sin he committed at that time by remaining silent which impliedly meant an act of abetting in those crimes .As these murderers are of the armed forces , and since the president is the commanding chief of the forces , it is important and imperative that he takes a decision immediately
