The controversial Presidential Commission of Inquiry (PCOI) on political victimization has aided and abetted efforts by the Directorate of Military Intelligence to obtain copies of files on highly sensitive investigations conducted by the Criminal Investigation Department, authoritative sources told Colombo Telegraph.
The PCOI last week issued an order that files pertaining to cases before the Commission should be obtained from law enforcement agencies for perusal. The case files are being copied by CID officials in the building. Military intelligence officials who have no role to play in the work of the Presidential Commission are being dispatched to retrieve the copies, Colombo Telegraph learns. Sources told Colombo Telegraph that the files were handed over to army intelligence officers by an OIC in the Homicide Branch of the CID.
Case files pertaining to the murder of rugby player Wasim Thajudeen, the assassination of journalist Lasantha Wickrematunge, the abduction of Prageeth Ekneligoda and the case involving the abduction and murder of 11 boys by a navy intelligence gang among others have already been copied and removed from the CID, Colombo Telegraph reliably learns.
Dozens of military intelligence officials have been implicated in grave crimes including murder and abduction of journalists and political dissidents between 2005-2015, including the assassination of Sunday Leader Editor Lasantha Wickrematunge, the abduction and torture of journalist Keith Noyahr and the daytime attack on Rivira Editor Upali Tennakoon only days after Wickrematunge’s murder. Commanding Officer of a military intelligence corps operating out of the Giritale Army Camp Lt. Colonel Shammi Kumararatne and eight other army intelligence personnel under his command have been indicted by the Attorney General in the High Court over the abduction of Prageeth Eknaligoda, who was a vocal critic of the Rajapaksa regime.
The Directorate of Military Intelligence which won protection through President Maithripala Sirisena during the Yahapalanaya Government when these cases were under investigation by the CID, has regularly stonewalled efforts by CID detectives to obtain documents in the possession of the military about the criminal suspects on their payroll, Colombo Telegraph can reveal. For years, the DMI has been intent on retrieving information gathered by the CID over the course of their investigations into high profile cases that have implicated army intelligence officers.
Wasantha Karannagoda who serves as an advisor to Gotabaya Rajapaksa is evading summons as an accused in the navy abductions case
Now, the military intelligence officers implicated in these grave crimes have found a powerful new friend in the current occupant of President’s House, who has himself been named as the commander of the 2005-2014 era death squads and has been trying to evade accountability for the same atrocities for five years. In the Ekneligoda abduction case, at least two former intelligence officials have provided confessions before a magistrate that Gotabaya Rajapaksa who then served as Defence Secretary, gave the order for Prageeth Ekneligoda’s abduction but the current President was never even questioned about this connection by the AG before the case went to trial late last year.
DKP Dassanayake accused in navy abductions trial promoted as Rear Admiral by Gotabaya Rajapaksa
Colombo Telegraph learns that the information contained in these case files will be valuable to military intelligence officials who will need alibis and other cover from their senior officers to evade justice for their crimes. The information contained in the CID files will also reveal which document trails will need to be manipulated or destroyed in order to stall the investigations and prevent prosecutions of army intelligence officials.
The Presidential Commission that aided this leak of sensitive case files to army intelligence was appointed by President Gotabaya Rajapaksa to scrutinize ongoing criminal cases in order to determine whether investigations into several Rajapaksa aligned military top brass and former Rajapaksa era officials had been politically motivated by the Yahapalanaya Government.
The PCOI, comprising judges and officials gravely compromised by their links to President Rajapaksa and his brother Mahinda Rajapaksa who holds office as Prime Minister, is already being used by the new Government to stall ongoing trials involving senior military officers including former Navy Commander Wasantha Karannagoda and others.
Sending a clear signal to the Attorney General’s Department and the judiciary, under whose supervision investigations into these key cases are proceeding, President Gotabaya Rajapaksa has taken bold steps to promote intelligence officials implicated in hunting journalists and political opponents during his tenure as head of the defence establishment.
Prabath Bulathwatte army intelligence death squad leader and main suspect in Keith Noyahr abduction case promoted to Lt. Colonel by Gotabaya Rajapaksa
His first spate of army promotions included a promotion for Prabath Bulathwatte, the main suspect in the Keith Noyahr abduction case and alleged leader of the death squad that presided over Wickrematunge’s murder, Tennakoon’s assault and other attacks on journalists and “traitors to the motherland” when the Rajapaksa Government was last in power.
Major Bulathwatte was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel by President Gotabaya Rajapaksa in February 2020.
The new President also took steps to promote D.K.P Dassanayake a former naval intelligence commander as Rear Admiral. Dassanayake who has been indicted by a High Court Trial at Bar on charges of abducting, illegally detaining and murdering 11 young Tamil and Muslim men in 2008-2009, is yet to be suspended from active duty despite being an accused on trial in a high profile criminal case.
Former Navy Commander Wasantha Karannagoda who serves as an advisor to President Gotabaya Rajapaksa has been evading summons issued by the High Court for the past month, but is regularly seen at Government functions in decked out in full military regalia. President Sirisena promoted Karannagoda as Admiral of the Fleet while he had been named as a suspect in the navy abductions case by the AG and the CID. (By Janakie Mediwake)

Irrespective of which party /government rules the country they all use the law to ensure their safety .So called promising leaders even go to the extent of exposing innocent people to cover real wrongdoers. Still some of innocent individuals are kept under arrest or on a search hunt as suspects of the 4/21 attack took place in several churches by a team of radical Islamic extremists.
They try to expose innocent people to cover the real who are directly responsible due to the personal links power house have with the wrongdoers.
There were couple of innocent corporate level individuals named by Mr Naveen Edirisinghe,Mr Priyantha Sugath Ranasinghe ,Mr M.Cadeer whom even had to face life threats and now have lost their image in the society.
Let us hope that all who should be directly /indirectly responsible will not get appointed as MP s to the parliament in the upcoming General Election.

CT: Great story, and now what about the political and intelligence agencies cover up of the foreign funders and master minds of the Easter Sunday attacks staged by Zaharan and network who all conviniently died, some in the US-ISIS Caliphate in Sainthumarudu, on the East Coast of Lanka where America wants a lily pad base?!
Now that Easter Sunday will again be upon us:
Lasanda Kurukulasuriya has reported that the CIA took away the phone records of the Suicide Bombers?! Why. What did all the foreign intel. agencies that swooped into Sri Lanka find? That Saudi Arabia’s SOF and the CIA funded and master-minded the attacks although Christians and Muslims in Buddhist majority Lanka have very good relationships and friendships and Muslims prefer to send their boys to Christian schools rather than Hindu or Buddhist ones also to learn English?!
ALso, a bit of history on other US-UK investigations in Sri Lanka: After SWRD Banda was killed CIA and MI6 were in Lanka to cover up traces of an external role in the so -called Buddhist monk’s killing of a socialist PM in Lanka..

New govt. always respect instructions of Maha Sangha: PM, the head of the New Tribe in Power.
http://www.dailymirror.lk/breaking_news/New-govt-always-respect-instructions-of-Maha-Sangha-PM/108-184051
The new government always respect instructions and advises of the Maha Sangha unlike the previous government, Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa yesterday said.
Speaking at an event held at Pilagoda Purwarama Vihara in Beddegama to award Adhikarna Sanghanayake Aktha Pathra to Chief Incumbent Ven. Lelwala Sumedha Thera, the prime minister said the place accorded to the temples deteriorated during the tenure of the previous government.
“This happened when the government was given the responsibility to protect Buddhism by the Constitution. However, that era has ended the new government always act based on instructions of the Maha Sangha,” he said.
He said the government decided to withdraw from the UN Human Rights Council Resolution on the country and said the government should support the President when he has initiated a programme to develop the country.
“In a few days, the parliament will be dissolved and a general election will be held. We have to win this election and forge ahead,” he said.

But Gotabaya Rajapaksa whose presidential hopes have been ably assisted by Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe and his faithful ministers Sagala Ratnayaka and Tilak Marapana and other powerful sections of the ruling Government is already considering reaching agreement with the UNP for a national government after the next parliamentary polls.

Now this hangman has brought the security forces out on streets to deal with civilians thinking as if he is still overseeing a war.

This 100,000 jobs is a slight of hand before the elections, a huge bribe,…. which he won’t be able to sustain in the long term. Gota has to be reminded this is nepotism of the highest order.

And keep the places clean.

I said this many times elsewhere. Nothing surprising. This is going to be the new strategy/trend of the new (old packaged as new) govt. Instead of forced disappearance,kidnap and killings, which are obviously risky at this time (we saw how Swiss employee case got played out), they have decided to go with SHAM procedures. Appoint all the accused in higher places, stage court hearings, inquiries, commissions, produce fake witnesses, conceal already existing evidences, intimidate law officers/judiciary, frame a few who resist, president directly threatening judiciary to not get involved with his matters and come back finding all accused innocent because of lack of evidence and loopholes. So that MR even after 10 to 20 years can keep asking the UN what are we guilty of???? Immoral and Cunning Lankans tend to undermine others intellectual and thinking abilities. That will turn out to be biggest blunder among all the others committed until now.

When a dictator uses the military of his own country, to commit brutal crimes, and murder members of the media, human rights activists, and political opponents, and then rewards them by appointing them to top posts, you know that these criminals are being rewarded for the doing the bidding of that dictator, so that they will forever be silent. This corrupt and ruthless president has consistently been rewarding the scum of this earth, for anyone not guilty of ordering these crimes, would NEVER have these thugs and murders hold prestigious jobs, and represent our country. Crooked Gota is openly rewarding them, and does not care to avoid even the slightest hint of impropriety.

Menik,
Gota is a military man. He is an American citizen. Mahinda is an actor who can easily cheat Sinhala people with using the name of Buddha. Both have sold half of Srilanka to China and became billionaires. Appointing military means no one can question what they are doing. Organising Easter bombing without any loss to Buddhist Sinhala gave Gota to take the presidency. Now they need two third in Parliament which requires 67% of total votes which is much higher than 53% they got in presidential election. So the USA ban on Shavendra will give some more Buddhist Sinhala vote. Appointing their military personnel in top posts will enable them to threaten voters and to get some more votes. They changed the governors of North East and Government agents to rob votes. If the opposition is really interested in the country, still they can get more than 40% votes to block two third majority to the Mahinda family to protect this nation falling in the hands of murderers and robbers.

This “Development” of “Militarization” of the Governing of the country is coming in different “FACES”. (1) To fulfill the “Election Promise” of maintaining the “Security” of the country’ (2) To make the society “Disciplined” (3) To secure the full involvement of “Armed Forces” in the “Development Process”. All these could very confidently classified as bringing forward a “Hidden Agenda” of a “Junta” that is in operation under the disguised form of “Democracy”. To confidently implement this “Agenda”, the most vital factor is to install a “Military Minded” leadership in the highest seat of power. This was achieved with the installation of a “Military” man as the President to head the “STATE”. The preliminary steps have been staged , with one more step to be taken, with the next “Agenda” of securing the “2/3rd Majority” in the Legislature. That too is most probable with the presence of a “Lame Duck” in the Opposition – “Sajith” with a fractured and an “Unidentifiable” future. The whole of the “Operation” of installing this “Military Man” was nothing but the culmination of securing “FREEDOM” to “Rajapakse & Co. Inc” most of members of which were scheduled to be on the “Chopping Block” for CRIMES committed. We see the “DRAMA” unfolding and this “Presidential Commission” PLUS “DMI” would take the “LEAD”.

By the way you don’t need to go 72 years back……It was just 3+ months ago some sensitive files were allegedly smuggled from the country by a serving CID officer. CT author didn’t seem to have any issue with that.

No never, I expect you to show the path of enlightenment, the middle path, however everytime you type you disappoint me and many others.

I never had any doubt that you live in another planet far far away from earth, possibly Mustafar and share your accommodation with Darth Vader (Gota).

Millitralization is the name of the game. In many a country when there is a Military man at the helm this kind of situation did arise for the good, Bad & Ugly for the country. Time will tell us soon the reaction of the General Public, as 90% people are peace loving

Ranil was given 5 long years to fix everything.
This impotent fraud simply failed everyone. He can only bully the captive weaklings , the corrupts and the poofs in the UNP !

Ranil has proved to be such a disappointment. His father was such a nice man too – considerate and generous! If he has any decency, he will go gracefully before being pushed.

Added to my comment above….. These days the President’s proposal to give 100,0000 “Jobs” to lower qualified persons are in the process of screening the applicants. I notice , among the “Interviewers”, a very “NOTICEABLE” interviewer sits in the panel. He is a “NOMINEE” of the Armed Forces. Mind you and please note the “Project” is named : “SHRAMA BALAKAYA” (Labour Brigade). The successful candidates are to receive a “Six” month training under “Armed Forces” together with “SKILLS” development. During that “Training” period, each one will be paid “Rs 22,000.00 per month. Do you see, WHERE we are heading and what is in stock for Sri Lanka.? All “Opposition” parties have been slapped with a “SILENCE” tape, because it is “Employment” for less educated – that group who could easily be “Brain Washed” for any “INTENDED PURPOSES”. Make a note of these “DEVELOPMENTS” projects. Some MORE in the pipe line.

Presidential Commission Aids Criminal Cover-Up: Army Intelligence Secures Files On Key CID Investigations:
*** This is nothing new. It started with a kiss for MR by RW when he went to the Housr Of Horrors ( Temple Trees ) the morning after and promised to protect all the Criminals . All the Criminials are roaming free and were Roamning Free under RW. Mngala admitted that 30/1 was to protect Soldiers.It cuts across party lines.
Gotha stood for Presidency to protect himself from prosecution. America has served notice that he is wanted War Criminal by declaring Shavendra as a War Criminal and America must act by openly declaring that his application to renounce American Citizenship cannot be dealt with without State Department and FBI clearance.
I read a poece of news in Info Lanka that France is the Gateway to Sri Lanka to get into Europe. What a joke . The reality is France is the Greway to ” HELL”

US Ninth Circuit Court vacates ruling on President Rajapaksa
***
I have always said that Gotha is on DEATH ROW and the above verdict has confirmed it.
Gothas time is up. Naming Shanvendra as a War Criminal was a Warning to Gotha and the Ninth Circuit Court has followed suit.
Gotha for the sake of Sri Lanka I ask you. ” Man resign and Flee to China as according to Mahinthapala you are a Sinkala DIASPORA and good at FLEEING

US Ninth Circuit Court vacates ruling on President Rajapaksa
*** I have a question for Gotha Lovers and can you please answer.
You lot 52% voted for a CRIMINAL to be President. The American State Department by branding Shavendra as a War Criminal has passed judgement and now the Ninth Circuit Court allowing the appeal of Ahimsa and in its Judgement stating that Gotha can be tried after he leaves office because the Presidency gives him Immunity from Prosecution. He is now a LAME DICK president passing laws to catch CRIMINALS.
Whar a farce.

US Ninth Circuit Court vacates ruling on President Rajapaksa
*** The full judgement of the Judge appeared for a brief period and it was blocked . It said that Gotha will be prosected after his Immunity runs out. It was too much for Gotha so he ordered for it to be blocked , CT can you find out the from INFO LANKA who ordered it.
The judges who delivered the judgement allowing Gotha to stand now look stupid and real idiots.
Wiggy can you take it up with judges
