Ramesh Pathirana accuses the IGP of not ordering to prevent the attack on Galle Face Protest

Date:

Ramesh Pathirana, a former minister and former cabinet spokesman, has said that the attack on the peaceful Galle Face Protest on May 09 by Mahinda Rajapaksa’s supporters could have been prevented but IGP CD Wickramaratne has ordered not to do so.

Ramesh Pathirana stated this addressing the Parliament yesterday (18).

It is a serious question as to how CD Wickremaratne will continue to hold the post of IGP despite the existence of such a serious allegation and how the investigation into this incident will be continued under him.
