Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa today said that all those responsible for the heinous Easter Sunday attack on April 21 will be brought to justice.
Making a special statement in Parliament, he said that legal documents with regard to the investigations into the attack had already been referred to the Attorney General based on the report and other documents prepared on the information revealed by the PCoI on Easter attacks.
“Though we do not wish to intervene in the judicial process, I wish to state that as a government we are ready to provide any assistance required for the success of this process of judiciary,” the Prime Minister said.
He said that the government had taken all possible measures to prevent such an unfortunate situation from recurring. He also said the President had also facilitated the CID and the Terrorism Investigation Division in addition to the Commission for the purpose of carrying out investigations independently.
“We are confident that at the end of the investigation, the respective departments will take legal action in the future,” he said.
“It is the innocent public who have to pay for the criminal negligence and evasion by the previous government by mixing up their own political agendas with national security. Parties responsible for the attack are socializing various lies, influencing investigations and diverting social attention even to date. We feel sorry for such groups. While remembering all those who died, we as a government, are taking every step to prevent such an unfortunate situation from ever recurring,” he added. (Ajith Siriwardana and Yohan Perera)

Another BIG joke. Enough is enough, see the verdict given yesterday in USA. Our judicial system must be changed.

Prime Minister Rajapaksa, Your Government has done nothing to bring the criminals responsible for the Easter Sunday Bombing for the past two years. You think you are going to do something now?

I don't think people will trust your words anymore. We have waited for two years.! Enough is ENOUGH. REALLY WE ARE FED UP

Hon. PM - please get the justice for the innocent people who were killed and injured by this drastic Terrorist act. Sirisena should be kept behind bars or severely punished Sir.

THIS IS THE SLOGAN ALL POLITICIANS USE. BUT NOTHING DONE FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS. IS THERE A POLITICIAN CONNECTED TO THIS? ONLY PEOPLE WHO HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DEADLY ACT IS TAKEN AS SUSPECTS.

Not in our lifetime. Nothing will ever happen in this country until the citizens change their mindsets and move away from party politics and hold public figures responsible for their action.

The oaths that the politicians give when swearing is a big joke. They do just the opposite. That has become just another statement that they read out with no meaning.

You joking! Responsible people will never be brought before the law.
