Parliamentarian Wimal Weerawansa, in response to US Ambassador Julie Chung calling his book a work of 'fiction' said he was happy the US Ambassador had taken time to translate his book into English and read his work within a day.

"Ambassador Julie had tweeted about my book, with no mention of my name. I'm happy to see her interest to translate the book to English and read it in just a day," he said.

Further, MP Field Marshall Sarath Fonseka attacked MP Wimal Weerawansa in Parliament today over the allegations against Fonseka published in the book by Weerawansa. 

"Don't sling mud at Army Commanders. He's attempting to switch sides and secure a ministerial portfolio," Fonseka said. 

In response Weerawansa charged that Fonseka feels hurt as the truth of the conspiracy was revealed through his publication. "Army Commander Shavendra Silva was controlled by the US Ambassador and Sarath Fonseka," Weerawansa said.
