Government MP Wijeyadasa Rajapakshe said yesterday he was removed from the post of justice minister during the UNP government because he refused to get the judiciary to handle various cases in its favour.
“I was removed as I refused to harass opposition politicians through the judiciary,” he said.
MP said the Constitutional Council also acted in a biased manner though it was appointed under the 19th Amendment to the Constitution.
“I suggested that DIG S.M. Wickramasinghe be appointed as the IGP when President Maithripala Sirisena sent three names. However, Pujith Jayasundera was ultimately appointed as UNP-led government at that time wanted someone loyal to them be appointed to the post,” he said. (Yohan Perera and Ajith Siriwardana)

I don't believe a word he says. He is known in political circles as double deal Rajapakse. He was sack because he refuse to expedite the bribery cases through courts in order to protect his Avanguard clients

We know how you acted during the coup, like a frog. And how you used your ministry to protect avant garde against prosecution. We will send you home next election

2015 mandate was to take the many miscreants before the courts. Mr.WR impeded this process by various tactics such as delays, omissions and openly preventing procedures against his friends. His present day utterances are ridiculous.
