Prez appoints committee to inquire UK’s Channel 4 allegations on Easter Sunday attacks
President Ranil Wickremesinghe has decided to appoint a committee, chaired by a retired Supreme Court judge, to investigate the allegations made by the UK's Channel 4 regarding the Easter Sunday bombings.
The President's Media Division said that the government plans to establish a Parliamentary Select Committee to investigate the allegations made by a former Attorney General, who claims that there is a mastermind behind the Easter attack.
President Wickremesinghe has emphasized that once the two investigations into the Easter attacks are concluded, the reports from the Parliamentary Select Committee and the Presidential Commission on the Easter bomb attack will be presented to parliament before any final decisions are made.

H haa....this must be the 100th committee. We have no belief in any committee appointed by politicians. In fact why don't you appoint Mahinda as the Head of the committee? Unless there is an international investigation, there is no use. Don't make us laugh

Waste of money because we already know the verdict, the rajapaksas are completely innocent and this was the work of the ISIS and all responsible are dead so let's put this behind and work towards a prosperous utopian Sri Lanka in 2048.

This reflects badly not only on the perpetrators the rajapaksas but also you, who were warned several times about this heneous crime but chose to look the other way.

It seems like the president has got an order from his rajapaksa masters to rubbish the allegations. The more he engages in this behaviour, the more the people hate him.

Most of the committees and commissions reports have fizzled out without any action being taken. This has led people to lose confidence in these exercises, unless otherwise some concrete action taken on the perpetrators of crimes.

To appoint a domestic committee once again to inquire about the Easter Attack is completely useless. The only purpose it will serve is to exonerate politicians behind this dastardly act. This sordid affair MUST be inquired by an International Committee such as the International Criminal Court or a panel set up on the auspices of the UN.

Do we have to believe and accept the report of the commission and would the members of the commission find the crony, corrupted nepotism clan and their parasites guilty to trigger early exit of the incumbent as he survives thru the former who always call the shots behind the screen?

You don't get to mark your own homework. If there is nothing to hide then invite international jurists. Ranil simply an apologist for mass murder and corruption. He is a moral vacuum and likely others have too much on him so he acquieces and keeps the job he has always coveted. It is obvious to any objective observer what is happening. Never forget 300 people lost their lives due to the evil that pervades our political class.

Like his uncle JR , very static mind. He doesn't have fresh, innovative dynamic ideas. Old, rusted commission like Sansony commission, JR appointed retired Judge Sansony after 1977 riots. What happened to that? Sansony, Commission all gone. Impotent President

The only way this could be resolved to the satisfaction of everyone is to appoint a group of investigators consisting of intelligence agency representatives of foreign governments whose citizens lost their lives in this attack, SL CID, Supreme Court Judge as Chairperson, and Shani as the representative of civilians. One man commission or parliamentary select committee are eyewash.

Another cover up to protect Rajapaksas. What joke, however he carries out what has been asked to perform. This is a waste of time and money, and the results will go nowhere.

We don’t want Sri Lankan committees, we want committee consist of international bodies. We have no faith in president appointed committees. The committee must consist of Vatican officials, US officials, and British officials and Sri Lankan opposition groups. Above people represents victims groups and opposition groups will represent justice for Sri Lankan victims.

Mr. President, who are you trying to hoodwink, the public? Sorry, no one is going to buy your committee or swallow the "Thala Bola"! You had already declared that, Channel 4 Documentary is bogus and this documentary was released to tarnish SL's image in the upcoming HR meeting in Switzerland. Mr. President you were appointed by GOTA so was, Tuan Suresh Sally as the Dir. Of State Intelligence. He is GOTA's Right hand man and GOTA rewarded him for his loyalty. How can the people who have lost their loved ones expect, JUSTICE from you or the "BOGUS" committee? Please appoint an International Investigators for the truth to be revealed as stated by Sajith and the former ARMY Commander SF! Cheers.

Gota replaced the judge and appointed a crony judge to free Pillian from the remand prison for the murder of Josep Pararajasingam MP in a mid-night mass. So President likes to appoint a retired judge to deliver a verdict that he (the President) likes. This is Sri Lanka.

Mr President in the past you have taken decisions which had some semblance acceptable to the public before you joined the present unscrupulous rulers who are a power block manipulating the Truth . Now we see a subtle force behind your decisions which the Public totally rejects. Remember this is not like gaining power but the LOSS OF LIVES in the past ie murders and the Easter Sunday bombing where justice has not been received although many Committees have gone through the process and come to a deadlock as the culprits are the ruling powers. The least you could do in this scenario is to ensure transparency by inviting an International Team to adjudicate in this matter since if your ultimate goal is to get to the bottom of the TRUTH who the culprits behind these atrocities which will give you relief that in your life time you have played fair by human beings.!

Before the Channel 4 revelations were broadcast the President said he was prepared to call Scotland Yard. The leader of the opposition also wanted an International Committee. Now President has changed his mind and wants to have a 3-person Domestic Committee. Is he trying to cover politicians who were really behind this despicable act?

The order from the committee is to first write the conclusion that Rajapakse's and their cohorts in military intelligence and Pillaiyan are innocent, I believe.

The fact that RW is so frightened to have an independent investigation on the Easter Attack shows he is afraid of the truth. He did not hold a fair investigation of the Yahapalana Government's Great Bank Robbery as well.
