MR Defends His Sons’ Private Choppers And Royal Horses

An irked President Rajapaksa fiercely defended his sons’ private choppers and royal horses, adding that people who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones at others.

Rohitha RajapaksaAddressing a rally in Chilaw, President Rajapaksa seemed extremely upset as he spoke about the comments made by the Opposition about the luxurious lifestyles led by the Rajapaksa sons to which included details of their private helicopters and a specially imported horse from the Royal mews of the Buckingham Palace.

“They (the opposition) are defaming us. . .They seem to be extremely concerned about the helicopters I bought for my children and the horses. I would much rather my sons grew a liking to horse riding than for attempting to ride a DIG’s wife in Pasikudah,” he said in clear reference to assault allegations that were leveled at Maithripala Sirisena’s son few yes ago.

Despite claiming he is not one to sling mud at his opponents President Rajapaksa continued to say, “If I had such sons, I would be in deep trouble. . .”

Meanwhile, speaking at a gathering of lawyers he rejected allegations of his regime interfering with the judiciary.

“We have never interfered with the judiciary at any point. There is no Court in Sri Lanka that dances according to my tunes. We have never protected perpetrators of crimes,” he added.

        President Rajapaksa didn’t defended ‘his sons’ private choppers’, on the contrary, he said he bought the sellam helicopters from Katharagama when they were kids. MR hadn’t uttered a word about horses.

        Nothing wrong Ven Rathana or the opposition raising the point of horses and choppers, but they must come with better proof now. Good that this picture is here. We want to see an image with the choppers!!!

    President asked the children be left alone, Let them be children he said.

    As the article indicates, he mentioned the DIG’s, Daughter in laws fiasco, where Sirisenas sons group were acting in a lewd manner trying to get the DIG’s daughter in law into the pic’s frame. This ended up with the DIG’s son hospitalized and the case ” shaped ” UP “.

    So much for our culture of impunity.

    Can we expect a cleaner Govt under Sirisena ? WIll his Son’s friends be prosecuted for the attack on the DIG’s son ?

    They should be, no ?

        Whether children involved in politics or not, the truth is politician’s children are a part of the political game for they eat, drink and enjoy from the spoils of politics.

        The other point, when children reach voting age they’re no more children. And presidents children are now adults. Being a strong supporter, I say, if president cannot put them in line with his chintanaya yet do not want them to be criticized he should have send them abroad.

      Video: Real Mahinda speaks!

      The speech made by Mr. Mahinda Rajapaksa at a rally held at Chilaw yesterday (16th) shows how bankrupt he has become politically despite stating on political stages that he never slings mud at others.

      The speech was limited to calling himself ‘Mahinda of Medamulana’ thereby throwing a veiled threat to the opposition and saying that parties are preparing to ‘take him to Hague’ instead of coming out with intelligent responses to accusations targeted against him by the opposition.

      Another new ‘spectacle’ was also noticed on his stage yesterday. A prompter was deployed to remind him of things to include in his speech. With the words prompted to Mr. Rajapaksa, he went on to gloss over failings of his children but humiliate others.

        Apologists like “Amarasiri” of Galagedara who are representing foreign designs for Sri Lanka show their true gripe against MR.

        They fail to note that references to MR as “Mahinda of Medamulana” only help 90% of Sri Lankan voters who come from rural areas identify closely with MR.

        These self-proclaimed giants of the English language would do well to read Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s poem “The Masque of Pandora” where Prometheus says “Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad”.

        Consider yourselves afflicted by this curse.

          Lankan Conscience, OK you read poetry, but that does not make you wise. Explain how MR could keep a straight face and proclaim he never interfered with the judiciary. He got rid of JP Sarath Silva, JP Shriyani Bandaranayake, covered up all the misdemeanours of Mervyn Silva and his son Malaka, covered up numerous serious crimes such as rapes and abductions etc. by his political cohorts. These are the crimes in the public domain. There must be hundreds successfully hidden from the media, most of which are also state owned or owned by friends of MR family.

He(DIGs Son) requested not to go beyond as they(both parties) setteled te dispute amicably. Mahinda Rajakase knows these very well, For mere MUDSLIANING he told this to the crowd.
      In his own words, “he is MEDAMULANA MAHINDA” A real TUG…

    Mr President ,please don’t bullshit and don’t teach your son Namal to bullshit.
    You are very hurt about chopper story. Imagine the poor people who have been robbed by you and the family. If you go Hambantota and mingle with the locals you can hear so many sad stories. Namal has taken so much of land by the Hambantota beach from poor people. They have been forced to leave and their land is written in other peoples name (proxy deeds) and the deeds are with your son. Namal is now building a massive hotel there. You will have to pay back soon. I hope these poor people will get a share hold on this hotel and justice will be done.

    Not many national leaders are able to buy helicopters for three children, and a racehorse from UK for the eldest, and say so in public – that too in an election meeting!

    This may be why MR’s assets declaration is not made public – the Commissioner of Elections dares not.
    MR’s reference to “……………riding a DIG’s wife………….” is shameful and unbecoming of a nation’s leader.

    From where did the President get the foreign exchange to purchase helicopters and horses?,
    They would have come from the poor nannies working for Arabs in the Middle East or did the Chinese pay for them.

    Out Maharaja’s son was to let use a air conditioned cabin to write the exam away from the rest of the students and it was evident that the Principle of the Law College himself was to write the exam later and NaRa got a rating that is astonishing considering the travels all over the place and Parliamentary sittings and super human deed.

    Very impressive the father must stand up for his sons, but he thinks the people cannot get the point.
    Much as he tries to cast blame on others, he has not explained how his innocent sons own so many luxury vehicles, brand name clothing and items, horses and copters. How much money does Namal as a government official make, and is that so much that he can own these luxuries? Same question for the other two. The youngest one does not seem to be doing any job, and yet he owns expensive horses? Our farmers struggle without buffaloes and cattle, yet these little privileged brats seem to be able to live the life only royalty can in other countries. Who are these people think they are fooling?

    Even if Maithiripala Sirisena wins, there is a possibility the Parliament may be dissolved, if Ranil Wickremasinghe is not given prominence. It will be something similar to the struggle between the Parliament and the Monarch during the Stuart period in England, but here the tussle will be between UNP and Maithiripala Sirisena’s faction. MR is likely to make use of this tussle. MR Vs CBK. RW Vs. MS. CBK Vs RW. Wait & see.

    If only he could raise his Children like CBK then he would have achieved something in his life. If Mr Vimukthi K ever comes back to Sri Lanka he will win over the peoples hearts. Not by corruption, lies & deception such as that carried out by Namal R. He will win over people for being a good person with humane qualities.

      hey guys, I wonder this horse could cost that much..
      Those who now drive laboginis on poor man taxes, why cant they buy a horse that cost not even 5000 Euros (160 x 5000 rps)? I really dont know why the people on this forum hype up the horse purchase not uttering a single word about those car races and purchase of ferraris ?

      May be Horses are not common in SL ?

      I doubt whether Bandaranayakes brought this kind of luxuary items to the country though they got their education on the west.

    Criminal Rajapaksa,

    You are saying that you are not interfering with the judiciary. Then what about Former CJ case. How many criminals you released from courts. Most of your current ministers have either rape cases, criminal cases or bribery charges. What are you doing for those corrupted ministers. YAKO RAJAPAKSA WE ARE NOT FOOLS. [Edited out]
