REQUEST TO INDICT THE STATE MINISTER FOR CHILD AFFAIRS, Ms Vijayakala Maheswaren
Dear Sir,
We , the Global Sri Lankan Forum, GSLF write to request you to take URGENT action to indict Ms. Vijakala Maheswaren, MP in accordance with the article 157 A in the Constitution of Sri Lanka in connection with her public statement calling for the revival of the LTTE Tamil Terrorists Organization, a proscribed terrorist organization.
Further, the LTTE ‘s main objective was to create a separate country based on the claims made by separatist leaders and the organizations. As such the State Minister’s call directly implies that she supports the division of Sri Lanka. The said statement
violates the Chapter 1,2 of the Constitution which affirms that the Republic of Sri Lanka is a Unitary Country.
We, therefore kindly request you to institute legal action on the minister Maheswaren urgently.
