Rajitha helps Eraj to flee country!

Thursday, 02 April 2015

A minister in the ‘Yaha Paalana’ regime has helped Hambantota mayor Eraj Fernando alias ‘toy pistol mayor’ to flee the country, according to reports. It is health and indigenous medicine minister Rajitha Senaratne who has helped him thus.

By now, Rajitha has become the team leader of an operation to help corrupt officials and politicians of the previous regime to run away from the country, and it was him who is behind number one mega deal striker, former economic development minister Basil Rajapaksa’s fleeing the country.

Rajitha had previously promised Eraj to give candidacy from Hambantota district. However, he was in danger of being arrested over the acts of thuggery he had committed during the previous regime, and Rajitha had helped him to leave the country secretly. Reports say he is now staying in Singapore.

There is a special reason for Rajitha’s helping Eraj so much. Rajitha is Eraj’s former boss, when he had led the state-sponsored ‘Pra’ group during the 1987-1989 period. Eraj was directly connected to the killings committed by this group. After the recent election, Eraj had stayed in Rajitha’s home and was sent to Singapore due to fear of arrest. Eraj is expected to remain there at least until the present government is dissolved.
