It's not going to be easy. I think the NPP leadership understands the risks, challenges and and arduous aspects of what they have undertaken. Bit please do not underestimate the perpetrators behind these incidents. Wish you all the success and protection to move forward.

Agree 100 percent. Moreover, the security of the new president and his government along with those investigating these crimes must be increased tenfold. Wishing you all the best, gentlemen.

With much relief we the public welcome this. The scam to cover up which Gota, Sisirsena, Mahinda and RW were running will finally come to conclusion in the near future. The country will be on a true path of healing and recovery.

The above mentioned subject matter, read along with the two most recent previous articles, prove beyond doubt that the new government is seriously commited to effect the change which the country was yearning for. This is indeed the "way to go". Pull out the sharks and the small fish will be nothing to net in. Timely action will also assist the voter at the forthcoming general elections.

Already the masterminds would have left the country. Even from foreign countries they will exercise their money and influence to dilute the findings.

NPP has the old team who investigated both these incidents therefore easy for them to carry out the rest to bring the perpetrators to the book

Sorry friends. With all due respect to the new government I was under the impression that preliminary probes were done immediately after the events. I believe it is re investigation or review or reopening the cases.

These are the preliminary probes into how the ineffective, willfully inefficient, mostly blocked earlier probes were done. May you see the bulb, sorry, light!

Sorry Sir. Jilbu. It is due to my lack of skill to decipher a coded message that gives a different meaning to as what is written. As Jilbu Sir says it is not the preliminary probe as I understood but the preliminary probe in to the preliminary investigation as to the credibility of the preliminary investigation. In a lighter mood mine is a high powered Krypton bulb not a fluorescent bulb assembled in the Republic of Kiribathi. Over and Out

@Ranjith, you can certainly frame it that way if you're interested. However, examining the sources of pressure could be beneficial for the progress of the case. Identifying who stands to gain from suppressing these investigations and who may have misused their power to obstruct or hinder the police could provide valuable insights.

No need to start from scratch. Commission reports and outcomes of legal processors and procedures are there. It is well known that who shouldered the Easter hunt and how the black money was whitewashed and circulated.

Bond scam - those who studied the scam will realise the biggest damage to citizens was done by the guy who handled EPF department investments. He was terminated but would have earned for a lifetime by buying in the secondary market while he could have purchased for lower price as a primary dealer. The political which hunt is not going to help resolve insider dealing.

Make sure that the investigators are protected , as they are dealing with perpetrators who have death squads. Good luck and may the blessings be with the investigators.
