COLOMBO – Samagi Jana Balawegaya MP Mujibur Rahuman has intensified the growing political debate surrounding the Easter Sunday investigations, calling for a thorough probe into the actions of former State Intelligence Chief Suresh Salley, particularly in relation to the arrest and detention of Attorney-at-Law Hejaaz Hizbullah.
In a detailed social media statement, the MP questioned why efforts were allegedly made to portray Hizbullah as the mastermind behind the 2019 Easter Sunday terror attacks, an accusation that had sparked controversy in earlier stages of the investigation.
Rahuman’s remarks add a new dimension to the ongoing national conversation about accountability, as investigators continue to revisit key decisions made in the immediate aftermath of the attacks that killed 278 people and injured more than 500.
Reflecting on past events, Rahuman recounted his personal involvement during Hizbullah’s arrest, highlighting circumstances that he described as deeply concerning. News First
