There are some in SJB who speak foolishly: SF
One MP tried to imply that military personnel are not capable of engaging in politics
There are some in Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) who speak foolishly, SJB MP Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka told Parliament today.
Field Marshal Fonseka was referring to a remark made by S. M. Marikkar who said on Wednesday that military persons cannot engage in politics.
“One MP tried to imply that military personnel are not capable of engaging in politics. However, I must say that there are four former US Presidents who happened to be Generals. One such person left the military post when he was elected President of the USA. I am sad that there are MPs in our camp who talk in a foolish manner,” Fonseka said.
Also Field Marshal Fonseka confronted a ruling party MP whom he accused of saying that the former Army Commander had raped a woman soldier said, “This member does not know the truth, as no such thing could happen in the Army where officers are disciplined. It was this MP who sold Ganja hidden under Vadai in the past." (Yohan Perera and Ajith Siriwardana)
