Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) yesterday said that only the Yahapalana Government opened the door for external interference to the extent of commenting on the appointment of army commander.
Addressing a press conference, SLPP Chairman Prof. G.L. Peiris said this was unthinkable in any other country in the neighbourhood.
He said the government only made way for it by cosponsoring two UNHRC resolutions committing to probe allegations of war crimes and agreeing to the participation of foreign and commonwealth judicial personnel in any mechanism to hear such cases.
Also, he said the government failed to make use of revelations made by Lord Naseby. (Kelum Bandara)
