UNP media spokesman Gayantha Karunatilka today charged that the government had allowed Selvarasa Pathmanathan alias KP who was involved in the international arms racket to start a NGO with government backing and going against the aspirations of the people and the armed forces.

“Government promised to take action against KP under criminal law when he was arrested by our army intelligence. But now the government is not doing what it promised and what is expected by the people and the armed forces. Instead the government is bottle feeding this terrorist leader who is wanted even by India and by allowing him to initiate an NGO in Kilinochchi breeching the law of the country.”

Referring to 13th amendment he said the government had begun to act a drama to evade the burning issues in the country. “Only a few political factions who are backing the government are shouting against the 13th amendment while enjoying the benefits offered from it. I challenge that if they are really patriot and people friendly, they should protest against the sky rocketing cost of living as well,” Mr.Karunatileke said. (Ajith Siriwardana)

He is wanted in India for the Assasination of Rajive Gandhi, There is a Red warrent on him from the Interpol, why are we giving him Royal treatment to Criminal wanted by Interpol, Is it because his money & Gold were taken by the ones involved. People know who are behind the move. India must insit that he has to be deported

Gayantha leave them alone. this regime is a ball of tangled threads. They make everything so complicated, so let 'em bury themselves in it.
Just sit and watch!

UNP is in a worse position than government....UNP is a NATO( No Action Talk Only)

Everyone knows what the repurcussions are when one feeds milk to a snake. The government, in its greed for assets and funds held by KP, has gone beyond its limit to white-wash the man including withdrawal of the request for arrest warrant from the Interpol. Now it is upto India to insist on Interpol arrest of this criminal for the offence of aiding and abetting terrorism and assassination of Prime Minister, Rajiv Gandhi. C

KP the international criminal is enjoying the hospitality
of the government. Why is he been given this privilege?
A explanation must be given.

Andrew Pitugala Monday, 29 October 2012 01:19 PM

KP is not the only criminal protected by this Government. Quite a number of them are Ministers and Deputy Ministers.
More could be prosecuted for bribery and Curruption if not for the Commission being made toothless.

It would be interesting to know as to what is happening to all the funds that were in charge of KP to purchase arms. How much of it has changed hands and to whom !!!!!!!!
