War Heroes or criminals?
Gotabaya Rajapaksa – Former Defence Secretary Questioned by the
Presidential Commission of Inquiry into Serious Acts of Fraud and
Corruption, the FCID, the CID and the Commission to Investigate
Allegations of Bribery and Corruption. We have lost track of what he has
been questioned about but they range from financial misappropriation to
abduction to removing scrap iron from the abandoned KKS cement factory.
The former Navy Spokesman Commodore D.K.P.Dassanayake was arrested last week on charges of causing the disappearance of 11 persons in 2008. Dassanayake, a highly decorated Naval officer who played a major role in the war, is the latest high ranking armed forces officer to be arrested under the present government. After January 2015, a good cross section of the entire military high command that won the war against terrorism has either been investigated, questioned, arrested or remanded over some criminal investigation or the other. During the previous government, the then General Sarath Fonseka was arrested and jailed over two cases, one of which related to irregularities in Army procurements; the other being the white flag incident. The first case in which Fonseka was convicted by a military court was clearly a tit for tat political reprisal.
