The charges to be filed against the General cannot be stated now - Army spokesman
(Lanka-e-News, Feb.28, 2010, 10.20AM) Answering inquiries made by Lanka e news, the Army spokesman Major General Prasad Samarasinghe told, whether the General is going to be indicted for conspiracy to overthrow the Govt., or whether it is on other charges before the Military Court can only be made known after the charge sheet is finalized. Right now nothing can be stated in that regard.

Our question was whether the General was going to be indicted on charges of conspiracy against the govt. The Govt. had been repeatedly announcing that Gen. Fonseka and 29 others were taken to custody when they were at his office for conspiring against the govt.

The Army spokesman further stated that recording of statements of the witnesses is almost over. The charge sheet will be based on the evidence collected,.

Evidence has been collected from over 25 witnesses so far, he added.

When there is no charge how can a army "spokesman" tell the world on what charges are against General SF.This is stupid politics by a party who do not adhere to the present LAW of the country.

Hello Major Do you want us to believe that the former General with 29 others were plotting to overthrow the government? The truth is that Gottabaya was planning to do this in a situation where his brother gets defeated but some military officers did not agree. That is the conspiracy that needs to come out not the political work of the poor general. Srilankan in New Zealand
