Ambassador Karunathilaka puke falsehood

Wednesday, 01 April 2015

We at Lanka News Web confirm the reply sent by the first secretary of the Sri Lankan embassy Kolurangan for the news we published by the caption “Sri Lankan Ambassador in Germany following Rajapaksa idiocy” is filled with mendacious falsehood.

We agree the error that there was no meeting held in the embassy premises in Germany but it held in the ITB premises where the tourist exhibition held. The most significant point is not that.

It is not a hidden fact that the Sri Lankan security forces occupy the lands of the people in Sri Lanka and build hotels. Recently Prime Minister Ranil Wicramasinghe told that these hotels would be given to the private sector. These lands are owned by the poor Sinhala, Tamil and Muslim fisheries community. The society of Threaten People is working on this issue for a long time. This year under the name “Dark clouds of the Paradise Island” few books were printed and inaugurated in the tourist exhibition.

The Society of Threaten People requested a meeting not with the Hotel owners of Sri Lanka but with the tourism minister Navin Dissanayake and with the ambassador Karunathilake. However the ambassador came with the hotel owners to the event.

When the Fisheries Solidarity protested to protect the rights against the land grabbing of the Rajapaksa regime, Navin Dissanayake was insolent and turned his face from Herman Kumara. By the way during the exhibition in Berlin the photographers of the ambassador Amunugama who came to the event without any invitation started to take pictures targeting Herman Kumara. The henchmen hoteliers of the ambassador entangled an argument with the Society of Threaten People team and used immoral words. Ambassador Karunathilake questioned from the STP team who is giving money for you.

Ivos Bowi who joined with us for a discussion said LNW the meeting held with the ambassador was a threatening one and the photographs taken of Herman Kumara was taken without permission. He said he never requested a meeting with the hotel owners and the meeting which was supposed to start at 5pm started at 6pm. The ambassador’s attitude was not friendly and he has falsified his comments to the Taragazen Sagen Newspaper that no such meeting was held. Later when I called the ambassador and inquired he accepted that it was a false and the attitude of the hotel owners who participated without invitation is an offending one and the ambassador disconnected the line at once.

Although Ambassador Karunathilaka Amunugama who has claimed in the letter that he is ready to brief the situation about Sri Lanka his official work is not that recommendable.

A mainstream Human Rights activist in Germany told our website although Mahinda Rajapaksa was defeated and Maithripala Sirisena became the president still Rajapaksa henchmen’s are serving as ambassador’s in Germany and in Europe and there is not much reforms were done in the foreign service.
Lanka News Web is ready to face any challenge to justify the credibility of our news.

Our editorial team has given the above news for the reply given by the Sri Lankan embassy in Germany denying the allegations for the article we published “Rajapaksa-style absurdities by ambassador Amunugama in Germany”
