Duminda cannot recall shooting incident: CID

24 July 2012 06:10 am - 170 - {{hitsCtrl.values.hits}}

A A A

CID informed Colombo magistrate Court that MP Duminda Silva told from Singapore that he cannot remember the Kolonnawa shooting incident where presidential Advisor Baratha Lakshman Premachandran was killed.

A statement made by Duminda Silva, who is being treated in the Mount Elizabeth Hospital in Singapore, was presented by the Crime Investigation Department (CID) in courts today.

The statement reads that Mr. Silva only remembered speaking to an election candidate in Tamilnadu Watte area earlier and then waking up in a hospital.
According to the Duminda Silva’s surgeon Dr. Keith, he needs to undergo two more surgeries to the head and hand. (Dasun Rajapaksa)

Ram Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:16 AM

So memory loss! What a fantastic idea to fool the people!!. He no more eligible to represent the voters and should be suspended from the parliment

shantha madawelass Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:16 AM

if he cannot remember any how he is going to work as a MP ?

Sun A Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:11 AM

How can this innocent person remember that incident?There were too many shooting incidents in his life till that fateful day.

Telemachus Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:27 AM

Which period is covered by this 'memory loss'?

Can he recall whether he existed at all?

Aiyo salli Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:42 AM

CID does know methods of making a man talk. Why not use them?

Unattached Citizen Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:46 AM

Good question! There are so many MPs who even forget to take their seats in parliament! They all must be kicked out forthwith!

Sam Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:40 AM

Good....if he can not remember.. he can not lie

The God Father Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:41 AM

Here comes another drama episode .

Calistus Jayatilleke Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:41 AM

How funny. Anyway, he has been well coached by those who matter to give such a statement which will eventually set him free. Now the moot point is can he at least remember that he is an MP elected by people and getting paid for being one by the public funds. If he cannot remember that too, then it is time to remove him from the Parliament and then save the money still being spent on him.

NADARAJAH SETHURUPAN Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:36 AM

He is a Sri Lankan politician, hahaha

So after all these months he's got amnesia? I wonder who his advisers are. Is it a closed case now??

Nodrog Tuesday, 24 July 2012 06:51 AM

After the case is closed he will regain his memory and parliament seat..

Cyclops Tuesday, 24 July 2012 07:00 AM

Anyway how about a lie detector test just to make sure!!!

Minister Tuesday, 24 July 2012 07:03 AM

Still there was, is and will be ONE who saw everything above and who will give the judgement some day. NO one can say HE did not or is not or will not forget.

Shamini Tuesday, 24 July 2012 07:05 AM

The ball is in CID's court now. A crime has been committed. This man brought the perpetrators to the scene. It is immaterial whether he remembers the incident or not as he was not suffering from amnesia at the time of the incident.

Cynic Tuesday, 24 July 2012 07:06 AM

Has he also forgotten that his name has the prefix 'Kudu"?

IBNUABOO Tuesday, 24 July 2012 07:07 AM

malkanthi Tuesday, 24 July 2012 07:03 AM

Nope I don't think it is possible for him to remember as he too was shot simultaneously. If he has totally recovered he would remember the incident prior to shooting.

m fernando Tuesday, 24 July 2012 07:03 AM

It is possible to happen to a man with a brain injury. But, how can CID officers fail to remember that they are government servants, paid by the public.

but, there are enough evidence for this killing case to be continued

Yaka Tuesday, 24 July 2012 09:15 AM

You only expected this much , In Sri Lanka anything can happen in politics ; Wait to see Baratha daughter and Duminda in the same stage again.

Ashok Tuesday, 24 July 2012 09:17 AM

Gaz Tuesday, 24 July 2012 09:34 AM

how can he remember?? he has no brains!!!!

Thomas Tuesday, 24 July 2012 09:29 AM

If he cannot remember, his brain must be dead, therefore he has NO RIGHT to represent as an MP, he should be relieved and a new MP must be elected to replace him.

Don Tuesday, 24 July 2012 10:39 AM

Obviously! The right side of his brain has nothing left and his left side of the brain has nothing right. So how could he remember???

Shafraz Tuesday, 24 July 2012 11:02 AM

According to constitution of Sri Lanka he is disqualifying to be a MP

Article 66. The seat of a Member shall become vacant -
(d) if he becomes subject to any disqualification specified in Article 89 or 91;

Article 89 Disqualification to be an elector.
(C) if he is under any law in force in Sri Lanka found or declared to be of unsound mind ;

Saradial Tuesday, 24 July 2012 11:03 AM

Now any body can commit any crime and escape saying "I can't remember the Incident"

Mario Tuesday, 24 July 2012 11:03 AM

Most of these people who comment against him are those who don't have the courage called him all these names in front of him, instead they keep voting for the same party..

cp Tuesday, 24 July 2012 11:07 AM

Did he remember his parliament seat?

Mohamed Wednesday, 25 July 2012 04:41 AM

How did he remember that he is an MP and request for a long leave? Now that he can't talk on his defence, it is easier to convict him with the existing witnesses against him.

Massiah Wednesday, 25 July 2012 05:13 AM

GUYS, this is one [page with the most ammount of comments on a page.. it is clear that most people dont tolerate this and him! we the peolpe have the power to appoint and remove, if we all get together there is no doubt we can get rid of these ppl. at this day and age anything is possible through media and the internet. the first step is to get idea that ppl like him are ruining even the government! lets do some thing about this...

Don Udawatte Wednesday, 25 July 2012 05:10 AM

I am sure the doctors removed his bullet size brain instead of the bullet from his brain.
Anyway he had nothing in his brain !

mathaka potha Wednesday, 25 July 2012 06:04 AM

Kiris Baba Amaray Wednesday, 25 July 2012 07:10 AM

No its not new. MR's Govt. he has all Ministers & Deputy Ministers - they are on the same category of DS, means brainless.

gafa Wednesday, 25 July 2012 07:17 AM

This looks like Indian and Hindi film where the main actor falls or hit on the head and loose memory, once a same incident will happen to him and gain the memory back. So some once to shoot him again then he will get his memory back.

G.H.Ravi Fernando Wednesday, 25 July 2012 07:25 AM

Then he can be the next president of this country

Harry Potter Wednesday, 25 July 2012 08:01 AM

Massiah.....your opinion is correct. But do you think this guy won the last Election Fair & Square ?
During the Poll, THUG Friends of this guy changed the boxes and threatened the poll supervisors with guns to keep them quite. (with the help of BIGGEST family in the country).
Everybody who was in this area knows about it but afraid to talk about it.

Has it confirmed by independent medical specialists. There can be a transient memory loss.However he will regain his memory
later.Majority of people do not buy into the story of memory loss.That tells another story of this man and the present state of our country. Hope he will not return to his previous antics again for the sake of the country.
