Kumar Gunaratnam with Rs. 50 million bribe from Sajin Vaas arrives in SL to batter common opposition candidate

(Lanka-e-news- 02.Jan.2015, 6.00PM) Kumar Gunaratnam who calls himself the leader of Peratugami socialist party arrived in Sri Lanka last(01) morning (12.13 a.m.) by Singapore airline flight No. SQ 468 . His arrival is seen as yet another drama like the spurious one that was enacted by the Rajapakses earlier on with him when he was abducted and deported.

Gunaratnam ‘s claim that he has arrived to support the election activities of the Presidential candidate of the Peratugami socialist party is as fake as the previous drama . Gunaratnam is an Australian citizen and was in SL on a tourist visa earlier . When he was deported the Immigration and Emigration department imposed a fine of Rs. 39635.00 for overstaying on the tourist visa. Such a deported individual cannot arrive in this country again under the laws.

Hence if he is to arrive he must have the due permission of the State, meaning that it is the Rajapakse regime itself that has got down Gunaratnam this time. Towards this , a sum of Aust. Dollars 500,000.00(over SL Rs.53.5 million) has been paid to him as bribe.

This colossal sum has been paid in Singapore last Wednesday by Sajin Vaas Gunawardena who is presently in Singapore. As soon as the payment was made and confirmed , Ajith Kumara , an M.P of the Peratugami socialist party who is in SL immediately went to the Immigration and migration department , and paid the fine of Rs. 39635.00 .

It was the plan after Gunaratnam arrived in SL today to convene a media briefing , and announce that the common opposition has agreed to allocate a Muslim district , and a pact has been signed with the TNA, in order to tilt the scale in favor of the government at the Presidential elections.

However , since Gunaratnam has arrived on a tourist visa this time , he cannot legally take part in politics, and if he does , it will constitute a violation of Immigration and emigration laws. On the other hand , if he is to be exempted from this prohibition , the Rajapakse regime must hastily grant him dual citizenship. While there is a long queue of applicants nearly a hundred thousand seeking dual citizenship , if this Gunaratnam who cheated the authorities , and who was deported is to be granted dual citizenship despite his putrid antecedence , even a kindergarten class child will be able to figure out the ulterior obnoxious motives of the Rajapakse regime which is frantically trying to bail itself out by hook or by crook (borrowing the words of the President) in its utter desperation .
