The Transnational Government of Tamil Eelam welcomes SF’s statement that forces committed crimes
Posted on September 6th, 2017
The Transnational Government of Tamil Eelam (TGTE) on Tuesday welcomed the statement made by Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka that Sri Lankan security forces had committed war crimes against Tamils during and after the war ended.
Issuing a statement, the TGTE said ‘confirmation of war crimes by Sri Lankan forces comes after eight years of denial by successive Sri Lankan Governments that no war crimes were committed and calling Sri Lankan forces ’War Heroes’.
Sri Lankan Government rewarded ex-servicemen with senior Government positions, including appointing Field Marshal Fonseka as the Minister for Regional Development and General Jagath Jayasuriya as the Ambassador to Brazil,” the statement said.
It said Field Marshal Fonseka’s confession to war crimes committed by forces under his command came on September 1 and said that he has information about General Jayasuriya committing war crimes and that he is ready to give evidence.
I know he committed Crimes and I am ready to testify before a proper investigation. He committed crimes during and after the end of the war. I have a lot of information,” the TGTE said quoting Minister Fonseka.
It said the minister went on to say that war crimes were committed even after the war ended.
Minister Fonseka also said that he had information regarding other ‘Officers who committed crimes’. We urge the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, UNHRC and others to act swiftly to bring perpetrators of these international crimes to face justice. UN should not miss this opportunity,” it said.

First, FM Fonseka must be cleared of PTSD if any of his present day comments that the “Forces committed Crimes” etc., are to be accepted as true by anyone, isn’t it ?
After the attempt on FM Fonseka’s life by an LTTE suicide bomber, most people in Sri Lanka now think that FM Fonseka, unfortunately, now suffers from PTSD.
It is rather typical that the TGTE would use such opportunitites to show the Armed Forces of Lanka in a negative way to the world !
The fact that over 300,000 Tamils who were used as a Human Shield by the LTTE, were liberated and looked after by the Armed Forces of Lanka, is QUITE FORGOTTEN BY THE TGTE !
TYPICAL AMNESIA … TYPICAL LACK OF PATRIOTISM BY THE TGTE !

If a Psychiatric Exam proves that FM Fonseka is free of PTSD, then it proves that FM Fonseka has now been FORCED by some people to tell lies against his own Armed Forces which he defended earlier as not guilty of War Crimes, prior to the LTTE suicide attack on him.
Statements made under DURESS are not valid, and FM Fonseka is free of the statements he has been forced to make.
* So, if FM Fonseka is having PTSD, he is free of the offence of false accusations against the Armed Forces & Gen JJ.
* If free of PTSD, then FM Fonseka is being FORCED to make false allegations – which again sets him free.
Either way, FM Fonseka is free of false allegations, isn’t it ?
And TGTE can go home to their shameful holes underground !!
