Colombo, July 21 (Daily Mirror) – Former State Intelligence Service (SIS) Chief Nilantha Jayawardene has done his job as he has disseminated all information on events which led to the Easter Sunday attacks since 2015, MP Dayasiri Jayasekera said.
The former SIS Chief has informed the state authorities on the impending Easter Sunday bomb attacks from January 2019. He had frequently informed the then Secretary, Ministry of Defence Hemasiri Fernando on the impending attacks,” MP Jayasekera told the media.
It is not correct for the Police Commission to expel Jayawardene from the police given these circumstances,” he also said.
