In the words of a recent dispatch, everything this person now represents is indicative of a national traitor where as quoted "His recent actions and tone of voice suggests he has clearly turned against the very same army he once led, for petty political gains. Ironically his new leader, Ranil Wickremasighe, called the Nation's Defence Secretary a traitor recently to divert attention from the true traitor who is now hiding in the UNP camp. In fact he is a double traitor going by the standard definitions of the word! One meaning is a person who betrays a cause.

This person has betrayed the noble cause of the army by suddenly turning against the war. He proclaims that he is now against the war for no apparent reason. Is the war any different from the war that was; have the parties to the war changed? No! it is the former soldier that has changed camps. The second definition of traitor refers to a person who commits treason by betraying his country. If this individual doesn’t fall into this category, no one will. His treason was rewarded by none other than the Ministry of Defence when it barred him and Jayavi Fernando, another retired traitor, from entering military installations." end quote and of such is the shocking profile of a once revered military leader who seems to have taken a psychotic turn in the opposite direction to where he was once headed and great caution needing to be exercised lest he circumvents the wheels of progress of the Armed Forces which could eventually translate to that of the entire nation.

In the present climate of Sri Lanka where her Defence Forces are decimating the LTTE terrorists in a multi faceted assault
the terrorists have lost all their professed entitlemets to power where Jaffna and the East are no longer under any LTTE influence worth mentioning and their capacity to maintain their cadres has been hard hit by the advances of the Armed Forces. Under the present leaders and the will of their commander in chief the LTTE have nowhere to run and their back as a terrorist organization is virtually broken so who is this turncoat former General to interfere into the progress of the Armed forces merely to serve what appears to be his personal agenda?

It seems apropriate to end by quoting yet another recent dispatch which suggests that "All signs indicate that this traitor is beyond redemption. Legal action is needed to punish him and his high handed group of embittered opposition faction cronies to stop them from further damaging the reputation of the armed forces, inciting divisions within the army, amassing other traitors for the campaign, creeping into security detachments, providing moral and ethical support for the LTTE, ridiculing military strategy and officers and engaging in other acts of treason. Remedies in Chapter Six of the Constitution, especially in Article 157A must be relied upon to punish these traitors. Further, provisions of the Prevention of Terrorism Act of 1979 offers an array of remedies that may be used in conjunction with other legal remedies. It’s no coincidence that this General is not the only traitor inthe party he has embraced on his return to Sri Lanka. There are a few other prominent names amongst a list of MPs who are reputed to be openly and actively harbouring the LTTE terrorists and also need to be taken to task for their indiscretions which merely empasizes the degree to which opportunism is rampant within Sri Lanka where anything sometimes goes for a buck!
None of these should however deter the relentless march of the Armed Forces towards eliminating the LTTE terrorist and should be considered occupational hazards which need to be effectively dealt with towards the true liberation of Sri Lanka from what imperils it including former Major Generals who need to be severely dealt with if necessary!
