Former AG Dappula De Livera to be summoned before CID?

10 Sep 2021

With regard to a statement made by former Attorney General Dappula De Livera prior to his retirement which detailed that a “grand conspiracy” was behind the Easter Attacks, Secretary of Defence Ret. General Kamal Gunaratne stated that the Criminal Investigations Department may look into it. The Defence Secretary was responding to a question raised by a journalist at a press conference held yesterday (09) on the same. “It can be done. After the AG retired, he is just a citizen. We have considered what has been said. If someone makes a statement and if it is relevant to the investigations of the CID we will investigate it. I believe the CID will take some action regarding that in the future,” he stated. Ret. General Gunaratne also said he was saddened by the comments made by the Cardinal who accused the Government of delaying investigations purposely. He agreed that the statements were mere opinions by the Cardinal, and that anyone is allowed to have their opinions. But such opinionated accusations must only be made after studying the matter thoroughly prior. It was also added that Sri Lanka Police has worked hard to investigate the Easter Attacks and the suicide bombers are no more. Whereas, perpetrators affiliated to the attacks are in custody and cases have been filed against them accordingly and are currently ongoing. “The amount of effort the police have to put into proving the accusations in court is unfathomable,” said the Defence Secretary, further explaining that one simple mistake would only turn the case around. It was also confirmed that after hearing the alleged comments by the Cardinal, respective police officers had gone to meet the Cardinal and due to the unavailability of the Cardinal, had spoken to several bishops who seemed pleased with the progress of the investigations.
