Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) Secretary General MP Ranjith Madduma Bandara speaking to a briefing held in the Opposition Leader’s Office today (07) confessed that the Good Governance Regime that came to power on the pledge of penalising offenders had given ‘licences’ to them instead, and that as a result they continue to commit offenses.
Revealing that there was a minister in the Good Governance Regime who had pledged that the Rajapaksas will never be prosecuted as long as he lived, the SJB MP noted that the same person, who is a Ruling Party MP today, is disappointed with the government and lays low.
Under the circumstances, the Good Governance Regime failed to penalise those offenders, he added.
