The leader of the National Freedom Front (NFF) Parliamentarian Mr. Wimal Weerawansa said that ir was not coronation of yahapalana government that took place on 8th<\/sup> January 2015 but the coronation or a gang of thieves and it would soon be revealed to the country not only about Ravi Karunanayake\u2019s involvement in the Treasury Bond Scam but about all those who were involved in this robbery.<\/p>\n

Addressing a media conference held at the NFF Headquarters at Pitakotte MP Weerawansa said when we criticized about the myth of the so-called coronation of a yahapalana government those who came forward to defend that myth and find fault with us and fool the public as bulls by shopping on behalf of that myth have been compelled today to face the \u2018Dittadharmaveda Karma\u2019 effects. It has been clearly proved today that what took place on 8th<\/sup> January 2015 was not coronation of a yahapalaana government but the coronation of a gang of thieves.<\/p>\n

Those who labelled the leaders of the former government as thieves and humiliated them by shouldering the coronatin of the so-called yahapalana government have been forced today to start displaying to the whole world the length and breath of their robberies.<\/p>\n

When you look at the hilarious responses made by the current Foreign Minister and former Minister of Finance Ravi Kaarunaanayake to the questions asked by the officials of the Attorney General\u2019s Department, the gift of Rs. 165 Million he has recived from Arjun Aloysius, and similarly about the houses and residences that had been given to the United National Party members who were in the COPE committee and being referred to as the \u2018Footnote gang\u2019 it has become very clear that this government today has become a government that is being pupetted with the money robbed by Arjun Aloysius.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t you meet even in the bed?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The former Finance Minister now says as an unblemished man that \u2018I do not know. My wife has done this and had I known that I would not have gone to live there\u2019.\u00a0 Isn\u2019t it that this gentleman and the lady do not meet even in the bed? Didn\u2019t she tell even that \u2018I bought this and Aloysius helped me?\u2019 Does this government believes that the people in this country are fools to believe their \u00a0\u2018baby talks\u2019?<\/p>\n

A shame for Sri Lanka<\/strong><\/p>\n

How can a person accused of a robbery like this represent Sri Lanka in foreign countries as its Foreign Minister? How magnitude it would be the disgrace that would cause to Sri Lanka? Not only Ravi Karunanayake also people like Ranil Wickremasinghe and Malik Samarawickrema too were involved in activating this massive Bond Scam. Now Ravi Karunanayake says that \u2018it is hurting to find getting assaulted by friends\u2019.\u00a0 Who are Ravi\u2019s friends?\u00a0 Is it Prime Minister Ranil? Or is it Ranil\u2019s minion Malik Samarawickrema? Does Ravi have more friends than these two? Now it is very clear that the gang of thieves have robbed from the Bond transaction. To say robbing from a Bond transaction is equivalent to robbing from the revenue of the country.\u00a0 If allegations of robbing were directed at people of other governments it was allegations pertaining to robbing from government\u2019s expenditure for development projects.\u00a0 But this gang of thieves hss robbed from the revenue of the country.<\/p>\n

Since the day this abhorrent government came to power a Policeman cannot travel on the roads of the North. Thousand of reservoirs and tanks have gone dry.\u00a0 People victimised by the drought have not received any concessions up to now.\u00a0 Despite all these shortages and hardships this gang of cheats are carrying out only robberies unhindered. \u00a0They got money by selling the Hanbantota harbour.\u00a0 From that also they robbed.\u00a0 Who got commission from Hambantota Harbour sales deal? How much they received? You will come know details about this very soon.<\/p>\n

This government which took power in January 2015 by telling lies to the whole country and making false allegations to the people who were in the former governmet by February that year carried out a robbery of several billion rupees.\u00a0 Therefore interest rates of banks increased.\u00a0 A small scale businessman or an artisan lost the opportunity of getting a loan from a bank and carrying out their livinghood.\u00a0 Tody the businesses have collapsed.\u00a0 There is no progress in the economy.\u00a0 It is moving towards the abyss.\u00a0 Today the State poperties have been taken hold of by a gang of thieves.\u00a0 It is only their robberies that take Place in the country.<\/p>\n

Get on to the streets to chase out the sinful government.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We tell the people who got fooled by listening to phony tales of Red Elephant cubs and Pacha Ranaawakas, who got misled by the Bana sermns of Sobitha Thero and who shouldered the responsibility of having the coronation of this gang of thieves \u2018Don\u2019t wait any more silently.\u00a0 The gang of thieves who were installed in power by you is cleansing not only the Central Bank but they are cleansing the whole country. The country is getting drifted from danger to further dangers and from chaos to acute chaos. If you want to repent from the sin committed by you by instlling this government, then get to the streets to chase out this sinful government.\u2019<\/p>\n

They came to power saying that Rajapaksas have purchased houses and properties here and there.\u00a0 Who have taken houses today? Are these houses normal houses? Not only that, this Minister had taken three houses by paying Rs. 1 Million each as instalments for these houses prior to 8th<\/sup> January 20115 .\u00a0 For a long time he remained without paying the balance payments.\u00a0 Then the company that owned the house told him that \u2018we will pay back to you the sun of Rs. 3 Millin to vacate the houses so that we can sell these houses to some other parties\u2019 He didn\u2019t agree for this offer.\u00a0 It did not take even two months after winning on 8th<\/sup> January 2015 and he becoming the Finance Minister of this country that Karunka Merchant\u201d came to that Properties Holding Company and paid in cash the balance amount of Rs. 100 odd Millions.<\/p>\n

We will prove in the near future that not only Ravi Karunanayake what type of a gang of thieves the other persons as well.\u00a0 It was decided by the leaders of the politicl parties in the joint opposition who met on the night of 2nd<\/sup> August as the first step of going against the coronation of thieves to brig a no confidence motion against Ravi Karunanayake.\u00a0 This No Confidence Motion has now been handed over to the Speaker of the Parliament.\u00a0 It is necessary to reveal to the counry details relating to the first representative of this gang of thieves and get soon the opportunity of dismissing him frrom the post of Minister.\u00a0 We ask the Speaker to give an urgent date to debate this No Confidence Motion.<\/p>\n

Meabwhile Mr. Wimal Weerawansa also said that Prime Minister Mr. ranil Wickremasinghe has suddenly met President Sirisena and has requested him not to dismiss Ravi Karunanayke from the Minister unless he was fund guilty by the Bond Scam Commission probe.<\/p>\n

Gammanila reveals the recipients of SMS sent by Aloysius<\/strong><\/p>\n

Given below is an extract from an address made by PHU leader MP Udaya Gammanila.<\/p>\n

Mr. Ravi Karunanayake told the commission hat he does not know to whom that has been referred to as \u2018hon RaviK and Hon MP RK in the SMS messages of Aloysius.\u00a0 I checked the complete list of 225 members in the Parliament.\u00a0 Therefore I am telling with responsibility that there is no one in the Parliament with first name as Ravi and surname starting with K . I request Mr. Ravi not to make this kind of irresponsible\u00a0 and chidish statements.\u00a0 As it is clearly mentin \u2018Hon.MP Ravi K\u2019 it has to be only within the 225 MPs in the parliament.<\/p>\n

Mr. Ravi has to get this thotta baba disease of telling I do not know and I cannot remember for everything cured soon as otherwise our country will be in a big trouble if he goes to a foreign conferenc and in response to questions asked in that conference which country he comes from or which country he represents and says \u2018I do not know or I cannot remember\u2019 what will happen to the image of our country. Therefore the government should not send him to any foreign conference until he gets this dementia cured\u201d<\/p>\n

I had ths case for 10 years and then got acquitted. Indrajith Kumarasway who is the Governor of the Central Bank worked for Raj Rajartnam who has been jailed by the United States for insider deals. This has been told by Mr. Ravi Karunanayake to the commission probing Bond Scam. Mr. Indrajith Kumarasway was appointed as the Governor of the Central Bank by President Mr. Maithripala Sirisena.<\/p>\n
