GovERNMENT pro-separatist, lenient to Wiggy
By Shaahidah Riza
If the security forces are removed from the North it will be a green light for the LTTE to regroup, said Western Province Councillor and Leader of the Pivithuru Hela Urumaya (PHU) Udaya Gammanpila.
He added that "the government's continuing silence has encouraged Wigneswaran to make such a demand in the North. In 1990 the Sri Lankan troops were withdrawn from the North, and the LTTE immediately occupied the area."
His comment was in response to the statement made by Wigneswaran on Monday (8) who stated that the military stationed in the North were a contributory factor for the rampant use of drugs in the North.
"Wigneswaran's demand to remove the military from the North was anticipated. There are some who are urging the international community to ensure the successive genocide of the Tamils. When Tamil National Alliance's Sivajilingam brought the resolution calling for an international probe into alleged human rights violations, it was Wigneswaran who cautioned him. Yet, Wigneswaran has the guts to make such a statement now. Our pro-separatist government cannot do anything about it. There is a secret agenda to tolerate them," he said.
Gammanpila also accused the government of being lenient on Wigneswaran especially for not charging him with contempt of court when he allegedly participated in a memorial for the slain LTTE cadres.
