Colombo, April 26 (Daily Mirror) - Public Security Minister Tiran Alles told Parliament today (26) that former President Maithripala Sirisena, in his statement to the CID, did not disclose any information implicating a citizen of this country or any connection to a citizen in relation to the Easter Sunday bomb attacks.

During the debate on the Easter Sunday bomb attacks, which span eleven days, Minister Alles emphasized the importance of seeking answers without politicizing the matter. He urged collaboration among the police and legal authorities to address any shortcomings and bring closure to the discussions.

Regarding the former President's statement, Minister Alles noted the absence of any mention implicating a citizen or their relation in the country. He also referenced to an ongoing case before the Maligakanda court related to this matter, refraining from further commentary on the topic.

Meanwhile, the Minister revealed that there has been no disclosure of information from any report indicating that Suresh Sallay of the intelligence division has had any relations with Zaharan Hashim.

    Calling out bulkshit Friday, 26 April 2024 11:13 PM

    This fool thinks people will take him seriously. These are common election time revelations that mean nothing whatsoever. This is just a failed has been politician's failed attempt at publicly. He's naming people from other countries just to sensationalise this when everyone know who the locals are who were really behind it.

    Expensive Drama in Parliament Saturday, 27 April 2024 05:35 AM

    Drama and wasting taxpayers money. Voters for the coming elections think of all these wastages going on daily in parliament when casting your vote. Need debates on improving the country and arranging for all unresolved and murder cases to speed up in the courts. Easter bombings will only be resolved with international assistance as seen, the locals are just going around the bush and pretending and making it complicated. As mentioned, around Rs45 million is wasted per day debating on this issue. Good money to replace and upgrade medical equipment in the hospitals and support the needy.

    The usual game continues, without any constructive action.

    Namal Saturday, 27 April 2024 07:49 AM

    The whole country knew that this was one of the gobba mythrepalas shenanigans.

    Disgusted citizens Saturday, 27 April 2024 07:54 AM

    For the country to move forward we have to kick the selfserving scum out for eternity.

    Leel Munasighe Saturday, 27 April 2024 08:03 AM

    We don't trust you man. You are protecting Mahinda, Basil and Sirisena.

    P.F. Fernando (Attorney-at-Law) Saturday, 27 April 2024 08:08 AM

    Hay Tillan, now why are you covering the most important culprit Mythiripala Sirisena? Did he beg you to save him like appointing Wijedasa Rajapakshe to clear off from all court cases.

    Dr. K.M. Dharmasena Saturday, 27 April 2024 08:12 AM

    Minister Alles is trying to cover the Truth under the carpet. Now MR and Basil is using Alles to somehow save him convincing Sirisena. Two days before Alles and Sirisena had met secretly in a 5-star hotel in Colombo. 2.

    L.al Piyal Mendis Saturday, 27 April 2024 08:16 AM

    What is the deal with former President Mythiripala Sirisena Mr. Tiran Alles. We got to know MS's office staff that he had offered you 15.7 million.

    Sambo Saturday, 27 April 2024 08:18 AM

    How can he implicate anyone else when knowing the truth.

    Kick the scum out Saturday, 27 April 2024 08:24 AM

    Did the moron implicate aliens? All these imbeciles are are so wrapped up in their self importance they don’t know their ass from their elbows.

    Sokrates Saturday, 27 April 2024 09:33 AM

    Eleven days for nothing, which cost taxpayers millions. The testimony of an obviously mentally ill man who is hallucinating and hearing the voices of Indian diplomats in his head is being debated. Then an extremely questionable minister makes a statement protecting the crooked Sallay. So far this minister has not contributed anything to the investigation but is covering up the crime and the Sri Lankan masterminds he knows whose boots he is licking.

    Useless Debates When There Are So Much Ongoing Suffering Saturday, 27 April 2024 11:28 AM

    These useless debates are deviating the main issues of the people’s and country’s situation. So many issues like hospital equipment upgrading, replacements, assistance to businesses to create more employment, improvements to infrastructures are hardly discussed. You disgusting politicians have taken the public for a ride far too long and it’s time to buck up or leave politics now. Enough of dramas and fooling both the educated and uneducated public.

    Dr Hook Saturday, 27 April 2024 03:05 PM

    What about US citizens of SL origin?

    Anne Feszczur Saturday, 27 April 2024 03:12 PM

    I know which country is involved. It's Timbuctoo or is it Mongolia. I'm not sure either !!

    Anthony. R Saturday, 27 April 2024 03:32 PM

    Just liers,and rouges, another drama unfolding. Clear deal with Alles and Maithripala to cover up the conspirators. What a shame, show off drama at the cost of the tax payers.

    navratne willamune Saturday, 27 April 2024 03:47 PM

    the real perpeterators of this crime must be laughing their guts out,our poor security apparatus unaware of foreing hands behind the Job.Sirisena confirmed it

    D S de Silva Saturday, 27 April 2024 04:22 PM

    Why can't sirisena come out in public and tell the world who the culprit is? Allen is definitely protect GR, and sure he has suppressed any information coming of CID. This is huge scandal, where everyone is hell bent in protecting each other. All these thugs should be behind bars, period.

    We are capable of believing anything he says Sunday, 28 April 2024 06:59 AM

    When Sirisena joined Ranil, we trusted him. When he sacked Ranil unceremoniously from PM seat we trusted him. When he appointed Mahinda to undo all the work of Ranil, we trusted him. When he was ordered to reinstate Ranil, he did it with a somber face we trusted him. When he was hiding if Singapore when bombs blasted on Easter Sunday we trusted.
