When asked why MY3 did it he said that the West wanted him to do so. RW in turn went on to appoint a Singaporean, Arjun Mahendran as the Governor of Central Bank, Paskaralingam as Head of the Treasury, whose reputation is well known and brought the Finance Ministry under him.\u00a0 When the Parliament brought a &#8220;No Confidence&#8221; motion against him and also the COPE report on Mahendran, My3 dissolved the Parliament and brought in his own people with the UNP included.<\/p>\n<p>See:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/dbsjeyaraj.com\/dbsj\/archives\/41859\">http:\/\/dbsjeyaraj.com\/dbsj\/archives\/41859<\/a><\/p>\n<p>4.0 <strong>Re-open the Ravi Karuanayake money laundering case.<\/strong> After dragging on for 10 years suddenly when Yahapalanaya came into power the Judge immediately acquits him of the charges and retires.<\/p>\n<p>5.0 <strong>Investigate the Constitutional Laws broken by Maithripala Sirisena since he became President.<\/strong> When he was elected President, MY3 was not given a mandate by the People to do various changes without approval from the existing Cabinet.<\/p>\n<p>(i) He appointed RW as Prime Minister when there was already a Prime Minister and a Cabinet.<\/p>\n<p>(ii)\u00a0Subsequently, during the August General Election, My3 first gave permission for Mahinda to run as head of the UPFA, and then two days before the election he had got news that \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Mahinda was going to win, and to make sure that the did not get the PMs post, \u00a0went on tv and also wrote a letter telling the public that Mahinda will not be appointed as PM even if he wins.
