Police said today they had not been officially informed of the claim made by former envoy to Russia,Udayanga Weeratunga that he was released by INTERPOL.

Police Media Spokesman Ruwan Gunasekara told a media conference that the delegation sent to Abu Dhabi to bring back Mr.Weeratunga to Sri Lanka was still holding discussions with the authorities on this matter.

Despite the warrant issued by INTERPOL on request made by the Sri Lankan government, a delegation had been dispatched to bring back the ex-diplomat based on the bilateral understanding and the diplomatic relations between the two countries. (Thilanka Kanakarathna)

Those who went to Dubai must be shopping, this is the best chance and reason for them to take a trip on public expense.

Any influence they have on these international institutions must be through the President. It is quite clear the president doesn't want to look into Gota's files.

Ananda, when you make comments have a gratitude to Daily Mirror for giving the opportunity to us, the readers to make sensible critics. The fact that you belong to a political tribe is NOT a qualification to write. If MR is so powerful, where is GoSL? Where is MY3's RW's and in general GAWAPaalanaya 's western friends? Is MR and GR that "internationally" powerful? If so, elect them in the election tomorrow!

Read the tomorrow news papers like your president. Try to send pugitha to bend the law a little bit.
