However Razik denied that he was one of the extremists paid by the Rajapaksa regime. Nevertheless, as civil organisations, the CTJ extended support to the intelligence establishments and the defence apparatus just like any other organization, he added.<\/p>\n<p>Asked what his personal view on the most discerning candidate for the Muslim community he said the following:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnsuring national security, territorial integrity and sovereignty is a crucial factor for us. Former regime was able to restore national security with the eradication of the ruthless scourge of LTTE terrorism. National security has become a challenge for us once again,\u201d he claimed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs an (Islamic) organization we do not have a right to express support to a particular candidate. However personally I believe supporting (one) after identifying the leadership that ensures national security\u2026. Gotabaya Rajapaksa clearly pledges security to both the majority and the minorities. As such his leadership is most desirous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever the New Democratic Front (of Sajith Premadasa) has not made any concrete pledges (to ensure national security). So far failed to promise to safeguard the minorities\u2026\u201d Razik lamented, expressing his dismay over the United National Party (UNP) led alliance which has traditionally been identified as the vote base of the Muslims.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are confident about Gotabaya Rajapaksa&#8230;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As an addendum Razik said that as minorities they had a responsibility to discern the \u2018winning horse\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Asked whether Gotabaya was the best bet he said in the hearts of the people the Rajapaksa sibling was the best candidate to ensure national security as he was being backed by former President Mahinda Rajapaksa who eliminated terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever they (the SLPP) should collaborate this through their presidential manifesto,\u201d he insisted.<\/p>\n<p>When asked whether Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka too could ensure national security in a future UNP government, he said it sounded like a joke.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo doubt he is respected\u2026. He was not in the opposition but in the government (all this time). Unable to ensure national security, whilst getting all those warnings and alerts all the while being in the ruling party\u2026 I see this as a joke!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFurthermore, the Muslim community should be able to identify the leadership that can ensure their security as well as national security and enter into a contract with them!\u201d insisted Razik.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.colombotelegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Iraj-Weeratne.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-205489\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colombotelegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Iraj-Weeratne.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"296\" height=\"418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colombotelegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Iraj-Weeratne.jpeg 296w, https:\/\/www.colombotelegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Iraj-Weeratne-212x300.jpeg 212w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 296px) 100vw, 296px\" \/><\/a>However he castigated traditional Muslim leaders Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC) supremo Rauff Hakeem and All Ceylon Makkal Congress (ACMC) Leader Rishard Bathiudeen et al saying they supported (Sajith Premadasa) unconditionally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNevertheless we don\u2019t know what ulterior agreements had been made\u2026 However we have initiated a mechanism to unite all sections of the Muslim community\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Apparently this video offended a lot of Gotabaya supporters including one of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/irajw\/videos\/524134828150340\/\">the pioneering Lankan YouTuber<\/a>, who went live on Facebook attacking the initial video in which Razik expressed his support.<\/p>\n<p>Attacking the new entrant for making Razik\u2019s video, he said that this was clearly a move to split the Sinhala votebase charging that the video was done with monies obtained from Sajith\u2019s election campaign.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c(He) has been right throughout doing a campaign taking money from Sajith. Lot of Buddhist monks (forgave earlier video allegedly degrading clergy) saying he\u2019s a small kid. (He\u2019s) trying to divide the Sinhalese. (He\u2019s) paid money to Abdul Rasik. Very bad\u2026 I ask all subscribers in my page\u2026. This must be put to stop.

No problem but don\u2019t split the Buddhists, the Sinhalese\u2026don\u2019t attack\u2026. But don\u2019t do campaigns with degraded persons like Abdul Rasik\u2026 we are totally against that. Learn to talk (properly)\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then Iraj went on to give a number claiming to that of the new entrant 077XXXXXXX, urging his subscribers to call the young YouTuber as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c(He) is not a Buddhist but don\u2019t attack us repeatedly\u2026Stop it\u2026 I came (live) to say this.

We\u2019ll see what happens!\u201d he concluded his video with a threatening remark.<\/p>\n<p>Social media experts say that as the maker of the second video was openly sharing the young YouTuber\u2019s contact number without his consent it was an open violation and breach of all privacy laws, community standards and basic media ethics.<\/p>\n<p>However when viewers tried to access the potentially defamatory video the following notification appeared.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/irajw\/videos\/524134828150340\/?sfnsn=mo&amp;d=n&amp;vh=e\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Sorry, this content isn&#8217;t available right now<\/span><\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Abdul Razik who was then Secretary of Sri Lanka Thawheed Jamath (SLTJ) who was arrested with five others in July 2017 on charges of insulting religion, later on expressed their regrets over the derogatory remarks on the Buddha and hurting the sentiments of the Sinhala-Buddhists.<\/p>\n<p>The complainant alleged that Razik had deliberately made derogatory remarks on Lord Buddha on or around April 13, 2013 citing that the Buddha was a cannibal and \u2018triple gem\u2019 just meant rocks or stones.<\/p>\n<p>The second YouTuber Iraj Weeraratne is said to be a relative of a popular actress who were slated to be from the same caste as that of the presidential candidate whose father was a former president of Sri Lanka, who rose from scratch.
