SJB MPs ignored at UNHRC sessions?



Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) MP Nalin Bandara Jayamaha today said some of the SJB MPs who visited Geneva recently missed the opportunity to speak at the UNHRC sessions.

“Usually a person who wants to raise an issue is given only one and a half minutes to speak at the UNHRC sessions. My colleague Hector Appuhamy was given the 45th slot at the sessions but there was no time for him to speak at the sessions at the end of the day. We intend to take this matter up with the UNHRC shortly,” he said.

"MP Appuhamy was to raise the issue of the Easter Sunday bomb attacks,” he added.

“However we managed to speak at various side sessions and managed to pass our ideologies to the UN officials,” he also said.

“We spent our own money for the tour,” he clarified. (Yohan Perera)
