SJB MP Patali Champika Ranawaka yesterday said he had got a threatening call from an anonymous caller who had threatened that he would put out a video clip of the former.

Mr. Ranawaka said in a statement that the caller had identified himself as a witness to the case filed against him and is pending in courts.

“This person called me between 11 am and 12 noon on Tuesday, December 14 and said that he is aware of every detail of the case that had been filed against him and is pending in courts. The caller said he was the one who took Sandeep Gunawardene to see a State Minister who was involved in the accident for which a case has been filed against me. He said he was also the one who took all those who are giving evidence against me to another cabinet Minister,” Mr. Ranawaka said.

Mr. Ranawaka said he will put out an audio clip of mine in the coming days. Also, he said he will come to meet me soon. I would like to state that is surely a false one and will not meet this person.

“This is a tactic by the government to destroy its opponents. This is also one of those dramas which are being created to divert the attention of the people at a time the country and the government is facing a severe financial crisis,” he added.(Yohan Perera)

The Srilankan parliament is a true kindergarten. Who is going to take charge of the real massive problems in your country? Why blaming and pointing fingers to other( mostly Western) countries while you keep on voting democratically for crooks?

It is definitely not worth for someone to do this for you as you are already a bankrupt politician and SJB will not give you anything more than a second grade minister post. You actually do not have a voter base. So you can create these stories to look real but the public and the government have better things to worry about. They will not want yo waste their time on a looser .

Prove your innocence in the Court of justice. You can’t hide the truth.
