The FCID should investigate the funds used for television, radio and newspaper advertisements on VAT justification and certain road development projects, human rights lawyer Kalyananda Thiranagama said.
Addressing a press briefing in Colombo yesterday, organised by the Collective of National Organisations, he said funds received through loans obtained from ADB etc cannot be spent on advertisements and this should be questioned in Parliament.
Two ministers told a recent Cabinet press briefing about death threats they received. It is a surprise why they did not lodge a formal complaint to police and no investigation held. The Defence Minister also denied their claim, he said.
Dr. Gunadasa Amarasekara said the government was in the process of changing the people’s mentality towards accepting a federal state.
