The government will conduct a probe into the disclosures by Channel 4 on the Easter Sunday attacks, Minister Manusha Nanayakkara told Parliament today.
"The Cabinet has decided to appoint a parliamentary select committee to probe into exposure by Channel 4. International-level investigations will also be conducted if necessary," the minister said. (Yohan Perera and Ajith Siriwardana)

We investigated ourselves and found no Wrongdoing. Case Closed
Jayasna Tuesday, 05 September 2023 10:53 AM
Mr. Manusha Nanayakkara, for every thing, special palimentry commitees wont do, its very easy, if thier is evidence, just come out and catch the individualls, already its been virally exposed to social media.
Marcian Christopher Tuesday, 05 September 2023 10:54 AM
Why don't you take immediate to probe the exposures against Panama Papers, Pandora papers and other such exposures connected with British
House Maid Tuesday, 05 September 2023 10:55 AM
Is Manusha the President of this country to make such a statement?
This is reality Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:12 AM
PSC reports never see the day of light. A futile exercise. Let the people decide for themselves.

Instead of shooting the messenger how about bringing all culprits to justice?
Percy Fernando Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:21 AM
It is very sad to say that select committee to probe this incident had happened but it's recommendations not carried out yet. Do not waste time
F.M.P. Weerasinghe (Former SSP) Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:22 AM
The whole world is waiting to watch Channel-4 to find out the truth, how Rajapakshe family (Mahinda
Titus Tokka Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:24 AM
Mr. Nanayakkara tell your boss Ranil to keep away Mahinda and Rajapakshe family without protecting them spending billions of our public money or we will know how to handle Ranil in the near future.
A victim of Easter Attack Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:26 AM
There will be no doubt that the probe to Channel 4 exposure would also be a Cover-up.
Karri Nalliah from Jaffna Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:28 AM
You and your nasty Cabinet and it's nasty Horu. After Channel-4 another blood shed will start only with dirty politicians from Mahinda to Ranil.

Do not weast tax payers money.

Hello Manusha many innocent foreign nationals died along with locals. They have absolute rights to carry out impatial investigatiins to serve justice for their citizens. Not cover up murders like in Sri Lanka to date.
Citizen Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:45 AM
Keep on appointing committees after committee's, nothing going to come out, as Ranjan said " they all are good friends." This only a show and waste of public money.
Punchi Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:47 AM
We started by killing Demilos in 1958 for votes and winning elections then we killed our brothers and sisters in the JVP campaigns, followed by multiple programs against our minority that has only resulted in their aspirations instead of being managed within our country, now we have to deal with a powerful diaspora. The Easter bombings is evidence that we are willing to kill innocents and even foreigners to achieve political objectives. We have descended so low. Maybe this is why when I political leaders visit overseas they are met with disdain and Indian political leaders with acclaim

Mason Bass Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:54 AM
Only country, power politics always right in all accusations and no suspect is guilty.
Gaston Tuesday, 05 September 2023 11:58 AM
After investigations, all politicians found no culprits. Looks like they now found the culprit,-Channel 4.
raymon Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:01 PM
We should appoint a committee to check all committees so far appointed and they have been in work-in -progress for the past 50 years. May be next year we could appoint another committee to check the progress of the committee appointed to investigate the previous committees.

The Parliament Select Committee of Sri Lanka is the best in the world to probe and investigate any issue of any country and get results in a highly accurate and fast manner. Everyone in this Committee are Highly Professional, Utmost Honest and Competent like no other. There success rate in past investigations is 100% and many countries are seeking the cooperation of Sri Lankan Authorities to have a similar system in there country urgently. Anay Yakko.
CitizenP Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:23 PM
Favorite investigation method in Srilanka..".Appointing parliament select committee.."
Gvallasamy Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:25 PM
Rajapaksas should be paying the compensation to the victims of the suicide attacks seeing as they are the family who organised it ! But blame Sirisena and claim all is false , when will the sri lankan people realise that the Rajapaksas are the evil of the country and these people are destroying sri lanka
Fernando Michel Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:39 PM
i can remember Mahintha visited to see Pillaiyan in Batticaloa prison WHY???? I thing Pillaiyan involed 100%
E Sarath Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:48 PM
Another eyewash to sweep this story under the carpet whilst wasting time and money. One can never expect justice and fair play in our country.
Reformist Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:51 PM
This is another clown jumping from one party to another to get Ministerial posts. Innocent people who got killed have no justice so far. A corrupt lawless country asking people to believe them. Unfortunately, SL people keep electing them year after year. They are already planning for alliances and they will accept any crook who jumps from one party to another as long as they jpin them without having any principle.
Bernard Jayatilake Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:55 PM
Instead of appointing a committee to probe the disclosures, appoint a special court to strip off the civil rights of all the nepotism clan.
Ivar Chan Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:57 PM
Conclusion of `Parliamentary Select Committee' investigation:: "No credible evidence available. All are innocent. Case Closed. Westereners trying to meedle in our domestic affairs !!.". Forgone conslusion . ONLY an International Mechanism will uncover the whole truth. No culprit - no matter how high up they are - should be spared. SriLanka Domestic Mechanism NOT credible.
L Jaya Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:57 PM
He is a hypocrite, blamed Cardinal for supporting Gota. However, in reply, Sajith gave an excellent rebuttal. Looks like Harin missing in action. Both imbeciles
Cugan Tuesday, 05 September 2023 12:58 PM
I thought there is a police dept any evidence charge them for manslaughter no hanky panky we are dealing with innocent lives ,who was behind the killing of Thanajudden what a nasty people
Blessing Tuesday, 05 September 2023 01:02 PM
Manusha doesn't know how to talk, when to talk, and what to talk. First he must be sent to Mulleriyawa hospital for a mental checkup.
Ram Tuesday, 05 September 2023 01:10 PM
This Pole Vaulter is day dreaming. SL Gov will never investigate the issue meaningfully. SC gave an order high lighting those who acted in dereliction of duty. Where action??
Aran Tuesday, 05 September 2023 01:11 PM
All these promises are ONLY TILL THE ELECTION. If President is sincere and honest, he could have investigated not only Easter attack but also ALL CORRUPTION COMMITTED BY SLPP. Don't fool the the people anymore.
German Tuesday, 05 September 2023 01:12 PM
So why on earth did you vote for the Rajapaksas massively????????.
Sambo Tuesday, 05 September 2023 01:36 PM
What can you probe in the truth.
Jagath Ekanaya Tuesday, 05 September 2023 01:37 PM
If Manisha is involved, then this probe will free the rajapaksas of any blame and discredit the whistle blower.
joshua Tuesday, 05 September 2023 01:41 PM
appoint the Rajapakshes for the committee. My foot. Who believes what you all do in that Parliament. All tactics to delay the justice. Why not start by suspending the Rajapakshes from the Parliament? Of course kuttiarachchi will cry.
N V Jen Tuesday, 05 September 2023 02:16 PM
And you want us to believe that Rajapakse clan will be investigated and punished? Majority knew that they were behind this heinous crime within days after the blast. All in the name of power and money.
Karalasingam Sivalingam Tuesday, 05 September 2023 02:28 PM
Truth is supreme.
Kumara Tuesday, 05 September 2023 02:29 PM
Sri Lanka governments have a habit of saying "we will investigate and enforce". This kind of statements is just to calm the people and international community from this shock. There is no substance in this statement. You must order an international probes into this one (Easter Sunday) and also the war that ended in 2009
Buddhist Tuesday, 05 September 2023 03:52 PM
The parliamentary select committee is useless. A full independent public investigating committee with powers to arrest and file legal action should be conducted.
Terrence K Tuesday, 05 September 2023 04:03 PM
The public are adamant that this be handed over to an International Criminal Court where the victims will receive Justice since all throughout in the past we have seen several cases withdrawn on the pretext of petty reasons due to political interference and the public cannot place any confidence in receiving justice.
Jay Acharekar Tuesday, 05 September 2023 05:51 PM
I am from India. We have for several decades experienced countless terrorist attacks. We have always found out the guilty with more than enough evidences. However, there are people, organisations and nations with vested interests who fund and promote such documentaries to misguide people by placing the blame on others and cover up the actual perpetrators. I hope Sri Lankan people realise this and dont react to this rubbish piece of misleading documentary. Violent reactions by Lankans will only cause more complications in an already struggling economy and this is probably what is intended by those who have released this report on Channel 4. Rebuilding national economy should be Lanka's top priority at the moment and India will always stand by Lanka to help
Eye for an eye Tuesday, 05 September 2023 07:10 PM
Execute all the Rajapakshes. They are dispensable vermin.
Dee Tuesday, 05 September 2023 09:30 PM
Better investigate their 2009 expose of some killing fields or something as well!
Tissa Fernando Tuesday, 05 September 2023 09:44 PM
Manusha will appoint a Consultant and take Home a good commission out of the fees.

THANK YOU CHANNEL 4
UMAS ALI Wednesday, 06 September 2023 02:19 AM
Me MANUSHA HOW MUCH MONEY DID YOU RECEIVE FROM Mr MAHINDA
Easter Attack Victim Wednesday, 06 September 2023 06:43 AM
How can the current Government led by SLPP be allowed to investigate Channel 4 Allegations because it was the leaders of SLPP who have been accused of being the force behind the Easter Attack?
Terrence K Wednesday, 06 September 2023 07:36 AM
@Jay Acharekar being an Indian, always as an outsider you might see this documentary is to misguide the people. But before curry favouring the culprits a thorough understanding of the history of this Regime is necessary and this crime is not an one off incident. Power is Corrupt and Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely and nothing can stand in its way.
Mohamed Adham Wednesday, 06 September 2023 09:45 AM
This twin stooges and the rajapaksas would be on the panel headed by Gota. This is how ranil rajapaksa will do this.
rbh Wednesday, 06 September 2023 09:48 AM
Your friend Harin new about the attack why not ask him instead jumping to party to party for gains and working with the people who put country bankrupt we are watching from the Globally get rid off the old politics people are more wise than the leaders. The president is from Aragalaya not people choice
