Appointing Fonseka as Army Commander was a clear political mistake: Minister Keheliya
[ Friday, 15 June 2012, 03:05.27 AM GMT +05:30 ]
Government spokesman and Media Minister Keheliya Rambukwella said that the former army commander Sarath Fonseka should clear himself first before pointing fingers at the government.

“The fact of the matter is that he should clear himself before he makes allegations against the government or somebody else.

The fact still remains that his son- in-law is a wanted man and is absconding.

He should accept that and bring him before justice and clear himself if he is so keen about anti-corruption,” he said.

In fact a retired army officer was brought in as the army commander and that can be interpreted as political interference. Appointing him as the army commander was a clear political mistake and he has been part and parcel of what he is alleging said Minister Rambukwella.
