Mr. Ravi Seneviratne, the current Public Security Secretary, has responded to allegations raised by former Member of Parliament Udaya Gammanpila concerning his involvement in the investigation into the Easter Sunday bomb attacks. These allegations surfaced during a press conference held by Gammanpila, who accused Seneviratne of failing to prevent the deadly attacks.
In an inquiry by The Island newspaper, Seneviratne dismissed the claims, stating, "Anyone says anything. All we do is wait for them. They are not things to be reckoned with." His brief comment suggests that he does not consider the accusations to carry weight.
The National People's Power (NPP) government, under which Seneviratne holds his current position, has not yet issued an official response to these serious allegations. It is anticipated that Minister Vijitha Herath, the Cabinet Media Spokesperson, may address the issue during the next Cabinet press briefing.
Mr. Gammanpila's main call to action was for the government to remove Seneviratne from his post as the Secretary to the Ministry of Public Security, accusing him of neglecting his duty, which Gammanpila claims could have prevented the tragic events of Easter Sunday.
As the debate continues, many await the official government response to these pressing allegations.
