Do you really think that Wasim and Pragadeep murder got to do anything with diaspora.

Mr. Gotabaya is innocent of any wrong doing. He is a freeman true the saying "Justice delayed is Justice denied". In our banana republic, we take justice one step further to its grave by cremating justice and then throwing a spectacle for the moadayas in the gallery.

So the current adminstration contains totally pure uncorrupted politicians then, I guess. Who will cast the first stone?

Mr Gotabaya its very sad to see the respected function of the defense secretary being pulled up . Its time for u to very sincerely be humble , be sane ,reflect and correct the where u went wrong.To Mistake is human and to forgive is divine.

It is shameful that a man who has contributed a lot to this country has to go through this

MURDERERS MUST BE PUNISHED WITHOUT ANY EXCUSE .....!

Sri Wickrama Monday, 24 August 2015 01:45 PM

At last former Secretary to the defense Ministry has arrived. He would have never thought of being subject to interrogation of this nature. O tempora o mores !

kal Monday, 24 August 2015 12:54 PM

To be called up for inquiry after having held a very senior post in the Government is de-grading. Power and money at one time wont save you now. Good lesson for all Government Ministers and Employees, you do wrong, you will have to answer one day.

Nobody is interested about his shark tank. Pradeep Ekneligoda was end up there.

das Monday, 24 August 2015 12:46 PM

You can fool some of the people all the time!

Labby Monday, 24 August 2015 12:00 PM

A good excuse to not arrest him is to say "Not enough evidence". And like so many other so called investigations the matter ends there.

Once powerful character, this is how people fall from top to bottom.....

Lets see Monday, 24 August 2015 11:41 AM

Good. cheating on public money is shameless crime. We hope RW will do the same thing for central bank bond fraud

nic Monday, 24 August 2015 11:38 AM

Is he appearing before the commission as a citizen of Sri Lanka or the US?

Gayan Monday, 24 August 2015 11:32 AM
