CID after Ranil

While condemning the probe by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) on a book written by UNP Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe the UNP questioned as to whether the CID had no other important incidents to investigate.

Mr. Wickremesinghe had written the book titled 'Deshapalanaya Saha Dharmaya’ in 2005 with funds received by the Friedrich Naumann Foundation.

“The book is only about Buddhism and the way its teachings can be put into practice when governing a country. We don’t see why the CID should conduct an investigation on the book,” UNP General Secretary Tissa Attanayke told a news conference today.

He said the probe was also a violation of the Constitution, as rulers were bound by the Constitution to safeguard Buddhism.

He further said the Friedrich Naumann Foundation Director was also under the CID radar only because the Foundation funded the book. (Yohan Perera & Lahiru Pothmulla)
