Speaking on the alleged conspiracy to assassinate him and former defence secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa, President Maithripala Sirisena said today the investigation into the incident would be handed over to the CID no sooner the Special Investigation Unit (SIU) concluded its probe and submitted its preliminary report.
Speaking to the Heads of Media Institutions at the President’s House, he said he spoke to IGP Pujith Jayasundara about this matter this morning as well.
“The recording, which talks of assassination attempts on me and Gotabaya Rajapaksa, states that they want to do so because we are against drugs. I already spoke to the IGP and will discuss the issue further this evening as well,” he said.

Attempts are made against the President of the US with all the military might that money can buy. They all arrested and gone to jail

Very good attempt to divert attention but this is a real joke, unfortunately or fortunately it is not an April Fool Day!

I don't think a person who wants to assassinate another will advertise their intentions over a telephone call or at the dinner table. Something doesn't add up in here. The details are confusing misleading and inaccurate at the least. Perhaps the president is trying to deviate the attention of something elsewhere.

Why did we vote for this man, who do not understand accountability and independent judiciary. Only thing left for Yahapalanaya was the independence of the judiciary and this was compomised by Sirisena who called AG to his office.

Will we also have to resort to illegal forms of migrating from Sri Lanka soon?

The campaign has started, looking for sympathy votes? Even the case on the assassination attempt on the former defense secretary was recently dismissed by the courts.

You ‘ll have to provide extra funding for CID, they already stretched to investigate previous cases you been dishing out including the cashew nut case.

What a fail state has this country become. This country is going to be worse than Mexico and Venezuela. In another country these officer would be arrested with immediate effect. This is like the Committee Ranil put to cover the bond scam. This man will do anything to sit in that chair.

Million dollar question is why that guy called media personal and published in media rather than report it to President or any other trust worthy personal?
