I hope justice meted out to me through NPP government – Ex-CID Director Shani
Colombo, September 27 (Daily Mirror) - Claiming the Easter Sunday attacks was a well-orchestrated conspiracy rather than a mere isolated incident, ex-CID Director Shani Abeysekara said justice would be meted out to him in an NPP government.
The former CID Director who was arrested and sent to remand prison for 10 months without granting bail on false allegations of fabricating evidence of a firearms case in July 2020 said that he was framed in a case to distract his involvement in the Easter Attack investigations.
Addressing the media at the launch of book written by senior media personality Sunanda Deshapriya on Easter Sunday Attacks themed ‘Pasku Irida Prahara: Paara Rajyaye Sewanella saha Novisindunu Abhirahasa’ (Easter Sunday Attacks: Shadow of deep state and unsolved mystery) on Wednesday, Abeysekara said he expects justice is meted out to the victims of the massacre by an NPP government.
“Both myself and my Senor DIG Ravi Seneviratne hope that one day justice will be meted out to us and all the slain victims and casualties of the Easter Attacks. That is why we decided to back the NPP to come into power”.
He said numerous pieces of evidence have been gathered from a number of investigations including several commissions conducted over the past three years and each of these probes indicate that the attacks were a well-orchestrated conspiracy.
“The key incidents of killing two police officers in Vavunathivu in 2018, destroying Buddha statues in Mawanella in 2018, recovery of a large stock of explosives in Vanathawilluwa and the Easter Attacks in 2019 are not isolated incidents. And now it is time to find the interconnection of these incidents,” former CID chief said.
Journalist Tharindu Jayawardena who spoke at the launch with his findings of the investigations of the Easter Attacks said there are seven different probes into the attacks and by linking all the loose ends could lead to the exposing of a big conspiracy.
The author of the book Sunanda Deshapriya addressing the media said that it was chilling to learn that there’s something like ‘deep state’ or a state of secret and unauthorized network of power that operates under a political and military leadership to achieve its own secret agendas, is operating in Sri Lanka following its post war scenario.
