Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe has requested both Eastern Province Chief Minister Nazeer Ahamed and the Navy to submit reports on the incident that took place in a school in the East where the Chief Minister had verbally abused a senior naval officer.

Sources from the Prime Minister's office told the Daily Mirror that Mr. Wickremesinghe would hand over the reports to President Maithripala Sirisena when he returns to the country after attending the G7 summit in Japan.

He had also ordered the Navy and the Chief Minister to refrain from giving statements to the media till the President decided on some action. (Yohan Perera)

    Even the Muslims from that area does not like this CM as he is very rood and a show off case. Anyway, he should ask a Public Apology for his nasty act, this is our request Hon. Prime Minister.

    This CM is an absolute disgrace to the whole muslim race, his head should be shaven, beard cut and displayed in Galleface green for people to throw shit at him

    Rilwan Friday, 27 May 2016 06:14 PM

    Shiyam Friday, 27 May 2016 11:01 AM

    Sack the CM. He is an insult to the Muslims. His Ego has put the Muslim community in an awkward situation. We don't need people of this calibre who tarnishes our image.

    Bubble Banda Friday, 27 May 2016 10:51 AM

    Nazeer no mercy should be shown to you. Hay man you have also hurt the eyes of a student mind it.

    Manuel Benjamin Friday, 27 May 2016 10:50 AM

    If this CM is not removed probably the entire SriLankans will get in to the roads.

    J Palitha Friday, 27 May 2016 10:48 AM

    Hon. Prime Minister, please arrest Weerawansa, Gotta, Namal, Basil

    Kadupol Jothywansa Friday, 27 May 2016 10:45 AM

    No covering business at any point. If it happens the entire nation will get into the roads.CM should resign.

    J Palitha Friday, 27 May 2016 10:37 AM

    Most Hon. Prime Minister, everyone is waiting for your verdict and Hon. President's verdict as it is a vital issue. 99.9% of SriLanka wants CM to quit.

    Kadupol Jothywansa Friday, 27 May 2016 10:33 AM

    Don't worry Hon. PM, even if you lose Nazeer you could get better people to replace him. Now he is totally hated by every community. Everyone is expecting a favourable response from you on behalf of the Senior Naval Officer.

    S.P.RAMUMAR Friday, 27 May 2016 08:48 AM

    Sir take serious action against CM because he demotivate the officer.

    Vijith Pieterz Friday, 27 May 2016 10:29 AM

    Make sure Hon. PM, CM Nazeer should quit his position for his indecent behavior.

    Desmond Jeromme Friday, 27 May 2016 10:27 AM

    Mr. Prime Minister, please don't try to protect this CM as he is a nasty guy. He has no rights to raise his voice to a Higher Ranking Naval Officer. CM should resign...

    PM it is not about power struggle. It is about ordinary citizen. Person supposed to be in respected post should behave respectfully. Citizens of this country did the change because we had enough of misuse of power. Security forces rescue this country for all of us to live peacefully. Law and order must be the priority than politics.get use of opportunity you got and draw the line Do not repeat same mistake again and again please.

    Eastern Boy Friday, 27 May 2016 10:22 AM

    Time to cover up the issue and undeeeer the carpet forever!

    REALPATRIAT Friday, 27 May 2016 10:02 AM

    BOTH SIDES SHOULD BE LISTEN ED THEN ONLY THE CLEAR PICTURE OF THE INCIDENT CAN BE FOUND. NEWS AND VIEWS WILL MISLEAD THE REAL SITUATION. via DM Android App

    patient Friday, 27 May 2016 09:55 AM

    Hon Ranil is right as in any incident, both parties are allowed to express the very circumstances that prevailed at that time. Because this is a very sensitive matter and ethnic harmony should not be affected.

    Kugan Friday, 27 May 2016 09:44 AM

    Dear PM what happened to the 100 day program what are the action taken.this issue is not a big deal these are all political drama

    SL Friday, 27 May 2016 09:22 AM

    Unchikuni Friday, 27 May 2016 09:18 AM

    rosebud Friday, 27 May 2016 08:55 AM

    Ahmed Friday, 27 May 2016 08:54 AM
