“Parliament is disturbed”: Harsha de Silva
Apr 20, 2015 (LBO) – A group Sri Lanka’s United Peoples Freedom Alliance parliamentarians, led by Bandula Gunawardene are protesting by seating on the floor of the chamber saying that the Bribery Commission of Sri Lanka do not have powers to summon and question former president Mahinda Rajapakse, Harsha de Silva said in his Facebook page.
“Bandula Gunawardene leads a group of MPs supporting former President Mahinda Rajapaksa to disrupt proceedings in Parliament,” de Silva said.
“The complaint is that it is ‘not proper’ for the Bribery Commission to speak to him on the Tissa Atttanayake matter,”
Their argument is that the Bribery Commission cannot ask questions from the former President and his brother Gotabhaya Rajapaksa – What do you think, de silva asked.
“Can they continue to be above the law?
What do you think?.”

Harsha, thanks for asking what I think. Central Bank Governor, Treasurer and Attorney General should be pure and honorable people. They should not practice monkey business with their family members while in the office. So kick CB governor first and bring some one that everyone can trust. I think, before they question MR and GR regarding the Attanayake affair, BC should question CBK and UNP hierarchy for drag now president Sirisena out of UPFA and offer him candidacy. But this is Sri Lanka, things happening here are bit odd compare to rest of the world, so we see….
