This gentleman makes me laugh!!!
In case President Mahinda Rajapaksa wins Thursday’s
election, legal action will be taken against foreign agencies and individuals
who allegedly funded the common opposition election campaign and induced
government members to join the opposition, Minister Dulles Alahapperuma said.
He told the Government’s final news briefing today that the government had
identified ‘three foreign hands’ and certain foreign intelligence arms involved
in helping the opposition candidate to win the elections. “They will be exposed
and punished,” the minister said.
He said the Government had made a mistake
during President Rajapaksa’s second term by failing to take action against
those who had reportedly given money and weapons to the LTTE and helped it to
kill the country’s political leaders. The minister said the conspiracies
against the Government had been discussed and hatched in Singapore by foreign
and local agents and the government was in possession of video evidence to
prove it.
“Opposition attempts to highlight a culture of violence in the run-up
to the presidential election to convince voters that the Government has a hand
in the attacks is a myth. We have statistics to show that this election is one
of the most peaceful elections ever with only 314 complaints being received by
police stations up to today. Most of them were minor incidents like the pulling
down of banners and tearing of posters,” he said. (Sandun A Jayasekera)
