The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) will record a statement from former External Affairs Minister G.L. Peiris tomorrow at 10.00 p.m. over his remarks about the discovery of suicide jackets, explosives and some ammunition at a house in Chavakachcheri, Jaffna recently.

The former minister said there was speculation these were intended for Colombo, and that the authorities concerned should investigate it thoroughly.

Cabinet Spokesman Gayantha Karunatilake at a Cabinet briefing said, the former Minister should be questioned over what he said.

Asked for comments, Prof. Peiris said he was delighted to give a statement to the CID and asked whether this was the government's priority when the national security was at stake.

He said the whole matter seemed to have been politicized. (Kelum Bandara)

    GL is the culprit, he is used by MR to create another blood shed in SriLanka. After the investigation, please take him to custody.

    janaka Saturday, 02 April 2016 12:07 PM

    Onlooker you are bladdy Fools do you think GL is intelligent man ? He is the man been you by MR to spread rumors.

    Onlooker Saturday, 02 April 2016 11:17 AM

    Onlooker Saturday, 02 April 2016 11:15 AM

    Fools do not understand what an intelligent man speaks.

    Onlooker Saturday, 02 April 2016 11:13 AM

    Uneducated who have not even sighted a university do not understand what an intelligent man utters.

    GL will be questioned to know who wrapped the suicide jackets with Sinhala newspaper ... via DM iOS App

    janaka Saturday, 02 April 2016 10:18 AM

    Put him behind bar. How can a person like GLP make a statement without prove. I am sure He is listing to MR. These are the people who is trying to spread rumors and dispute the on going enquiries against MR

    Bubble Banda Saturday, 02 April 2016 10:16 AM

    Pls. arrest GL - he is behind this scene.

    Vijith Pieterz Saturday, 02 April 2016 10:15 AM

    The plan was drawn by Mahinda and it has been implemented by GL and WW. This is dangerous, these two should be arrested over this issue. CID over to you.

    Sapu Friday, 01 April 2016 06:38 PM

    GLs lies are good for the idiots worshipping MR

    Desmond Jeromme Saturday, 02 April 2016 10:10 AM

    Hay GL, don't you feel cheap of you uttering nonsense being a professor.

    Thomas Ranger Saturday, 02 April 2016 09:17 AM

    Another example of this idiot and his 'foot in mouth' sayings.

    Eds Saturday, 02 April 2016 08:46 AM

    And the YP for godless creatures

    Lanka Friday, 01 April 2016 07:32 PM

    Let the "grillings" begin! At least, we have some comics to get through the day!

    Puspa Friday, 01 April 2016 07:32 PM

    There is nothing wrong in CID getting statement from GLP. After all these sort of remarks can fuel race tension. The country under MS is moving in the right path and people like GLP can change the course. So nip the bud.

    Gayan Friday, 01 April 2016 07:17 PM

    Police state

    Kusum Friday, 01 April 2016 07:16 PM

    While seeking ganja found bombs, of course GL should be grilled for more information, idiots!

    ANTON Friday, 01 April 2016 07:14 PM

    NOT ONLY THE FISH BUT ALSO PROFFESORIES DIE BY THE MOUTH.

    Hassanda Friday, 01 April 2016 07:11 PM

    Big mouth GL caught in the trap for quotingThird party story

    Premalal Friday, 01 April 2016 06:58 PM

    Oh give us a break does the CID think that they can understand his language?

    karu Friday, 01 April 2016 06:51 PM
