UNP Central working Committee Meeting Ended Without Any Decision
The UNP Central Working Committee met today at Sirikotha at 10.30am and ended at 12.10pm. During the meeting several members accused Minister of Justice Wijedasa Rajapaksa for not taking adequate steps to accelerate the cases of massive frauds and corruptions committed by officials and members of the previous regime. In addition, they blamed him for stating that ’’Wijedasa won’t rest until such time the Hambantota Port issue is brought to an end’’.
In reply Wijedasa Rajapaksa said, that the delay in prosecuting officials and members of the previous regime for their frauds and corruptions is beyond his control. Further, he denied having made such a statement on Hambantota Port . But UNP members who raised these issues remained unshaken and maintained their stand, stated Harsa de Silva in his tweet .
Towards the end of the meeting Prime Minister Ranil Wickramesinghe has taken Wijedasa Rajapaksa to an adjoining place to further discuss the matter privately.
UNP’s Central Working Committee meeting ended up thus without taking any decision.
