Colombo High Court Judge Sunil Rajapaksa a short while ago ordered the prison Authorities to transfer former army commander Sarath Fonseka to the Colombo General Hospital from the Nawaloka Hospital citing security reasons.

This order was made following a request from the prisons authorities that they could provide enough security to the former army commander if he is transferred to the National Hospital as they are unable to provide enough security to him when he is at the Nawaloka Hospital.

After considering the request, the Judge had given the permission to transfer Fonseka to the National Hospital.
Few days ago, Fonseka was admitted to Nawaloka hospital after the Court directed that he be treated for a severe case of asthmatic bronchitis when his lawyers submitted his medical reports and the doctors’ recommendations. (FT)

    You are not Neutral my dear.. you are biased.

    Cynic Saturday, 05 May 2012 05:48 AM

    Not God, but the Buddha's Dhamma which is professed by the Rulers, should prevail on this Thrice Blessed day. It will be the best Day to release Sarath Fonseka in the Spirit of Meththa Karuna.

    My reply to realpeace is these are what you called "illagena kanawa". or "annunta seeni kiranawa". If he did not get greedy for power this would not have happened. By now he would have been in USA with his family enjoying the money made with his son in Law

    So it says on the wall of the Welikada prison...."Sirakaruwoth Manushyayoya" So this manushshaya has no freedom to choose the place he should be treated for his physical ailment. What a blessed country is this?

    What happens if there is a change of govt one day and SF is in? Will the favor be returned? Do not look up and spit it could fall on you!!!!!!!

    I wonder why this retired army chief is shunted between places endlessly? Why can't he enjoy his retirement in peace with dignity? I can't believe the Sri Lankans have become so ungrateful so quickly!

    hubert Friday, 04 May 2012 10:44 AM

    I don't understand this theory, i have nothing against National Hospital, but why they need to transfer him because of security reasons, his our war hero, the government should support the security if the prisons authorities cannot handle it.

    Ralph Anthony Kern Friday, 04 May 2012 11:08 AM

    It is difficult to believe these people. Better take care.

    abdulla Friday, 04 May 2012 10:26 AM
