Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka has revealed that there are credible reports that the security forces are planning to attack the peaceful non-violent people in front of Temple Trees and drive them away.
In a Facebook post, he called on the people to oppose the suppression of sovereignty by repression and police force.
Fighters, join. He also calls for a rally.
“We do not expect peaceful protesters to do such a thing.”
This is the answer given by our Minister of Public Security Prasanna Ranatunga when we inquired about this.
The Minister further stated that the Government has never opposed the right of the people of the country to hold peaceful protests.
However, the Minister said that he did not approve of acting in a manner that would cause harm to another person.
