Detained former army commander General Sarath Fonseka, speaking to reporters at the funeral of his mother-in-law a short while ago, said that the victory day celebrations being held tomorrow is not in the interest of the army.

Fonseka said that the event was merely to satisfy some individuals. He also said that it was with the greatest difficulty that he was given clearance to attend the funeral of Anoma Fonseka's mother.
