Enraged Poojitha who could n’t get his face alongside president’s in the photos avenges !

-STF Commandant’s actual speech (video) ; Are the media clean enough ?

(Lanka-e-News -22.June.2016, 9.05AM) Recently , when the police STF seized 80 kilos of cocaine in a private container bearing  the name  ‘Asian’ among the quantity of sugar imported by a Company “Amro’, it  became clear because of the obnoxious   conduct of some media and media organizations  , and the stupidity of the  IGP who is obsessed with publicity hunting , the drug peddlers have been indirectly rendered assistance.

The new special unit  that has been recently formed by the Finance ministry was associated with the STF that conducted the raid , and because of that mud was first slung at Ravi Karunanayake. Since  the president visited the scene of the crime to monitor , he was also criticized by a group. The truth of the whole  matter however is as follows :

IP Premalal who is attached to the newly formed special unit of the finance ministry , had received a tip off regarding this drug haul. Incidentally , Premalal  was earlier working with the police Anti  narcotics Bureau . Previously on such occasions when such information were received , and the Bureau was notified , corrupt Kamal Silva SSP , Director of the Bureau did not pay heed to such information.

According to earlier reports , Kamal Silva conducted raids only with a corrupt group of his  which included his bosom pals  Rangajeewa, Mahinda and Wijesekera . This group is hand in glove with the drug dealers . Hence , Premalal IP who was aware of this had secretly passed this tip off to minister Ravi Karunanayake , and with whose assistance the STF chief was informed. The raid was finally conducted by the STF officers under STF chief Ranjith Perera (senior DIG) and on his instructions.

Poojitha the green eyed monster

Following the raid , Ravi Karunanayake and the president visited the scene. The IGP was not informed at that time. The green eyed IGP who could not include his face in the media cameras along with president , took offence at the STF raid conducted by the STF chiefs, because Poojitha a notorious publicity seeker could not achieve his selfish  dastardly megalomaniac ambitions. He is one who would stoop to anything if he can earn selfish self publicity.  

Therefore it was the IGP himself who provoked the media groups of his , and used the face book towards that while harboring  the notion  that the police media spokesman division has made him a fool. Some media published ,this raid was conducted by the Customs . Besides , since the various media were giving different reports regarding the quantity of cocaine seized , the entire operation became the  butt of a joke among the public. 

Under these circumstances , Ranjith Perera had to convene a press briefing and reveal the true picture. The media coolies however after ignoring the salient facts , picked up what were unimportant and irrelevant to  distort the facts and create  a huge din that Ranjith Perera made statements against media freedom.

(The video footage of Ranjith Perera is hereunder and can be viewed. It is evident he had not made any statement that is against media freedom) . He had actually  revealed the woes when carrying out this thankless task  with the STF .Ranjith Perera had  further commented they had received no recognition for their  operations during the war , and this drug racket had been going on for a long period towards which a group of Customs officers involved in it had been  extending support . 

He exposed the corruption of the Customs officers involved in the scanning of containers, as well as the media personnel who are in the pay of these  drug dealers and  racketeers . Sadly , the media coolies only got hold of that exposure of his pertaining to the corrupt media personnel , to distort and give a mischievous twist .

Media organizations afflicted with cancerous growth 

The convener of the Free Media movement , Seetha Ranjani a journalist who had gone on pension was slated by Lanka e news earlier on. On  the first occasion issuing a communiqué she said , legal action should be instituted against Ranjith Perera. This statement only betrayed her ignorance of the facts as they are , and that she has not understood what Ranjith Perera revealed.

Such  media coolies depending on distorted versions , hearsay ,gossips and collecting them from various wayside places to make their reports to suit their mischievous ends is most despicable ,deplorable and is against professional ethics. Aren’t such reporting   most irresponsible of a responsible media,  disgraceful  and stupid?
 
We , in fact once told our  media friends that criticized her not to engage in such castigation as this lady is suffering from a very serious disease.

Therefore if she is ailing from a serious illness , what she should do is relax , stay back and take treatment duly without jumping the gun , to make  announcements based on misinformation and misleading reports without a thorough investigation into the facts , thereby infecting the entire country too with her contagion . That  will serve her well and do immense good , rather than disgracing and tarnishing the name of  the old media movement . Unfortunately , the professional print media association that followed her blindly issued a communiqué that nearly Ranjith Perera  and blew off his head .

It is by now clear to all  , these media organizations have acted like amateurish morons  without responsibility . Hence in the future at least the media that ought to act with responsibility must scrutinize and probe their notifications a dozen times before publishing them.

Was the allegation made by Ranjith Perera that some media personnel are in the pay of the mafia groups and racketeers  wrong? Going by what is seen and heard it is absolutely right. He mentioned the name of Gayan Kumara Weerasinghe as one such media coolie . That is 100 % right. If it is probed on whose money he built the house , it will become crystal  what a scoundrel of a media coolie is Gayan Kumara . What’s more ? Out of whose money did he  conduct his close relatiion’s funeral ceremony,  a fact everybody is well aware. Need we say more about media coolie Gayan Kumara who shamelessly conducts himself worse than a latrine coolie ?
 
If any journalist says  he/she  does not know how this scoundrel falsified facts and misreported the truths in league with Anura Senanayake who is now in remand , he/she is not a journalist . One journalist of Lankadeepa stated , if the journalists are collecting bribes , Ranjith Perera should reveal with evidence. It is an old adage ‘the more you defend the clearer it becomes it needs defense.’ If any journalist is turning jittery when facts are exposed , certainly it is  best he/ she  does something to clear his conscience – the only cure for guilt.

It is a pity the Lankadeepa journalist perhaps had not raised his head enough from the news desk on which he rests his head while pretending he is working. If he had just casually looked around   , he could have seen to himself at least two or three journalists at close range who  are taking bribes to falsify facts and distort the truths . He would then realize  Ranjith Perera’s evidence is not necessary to testify . 

The complete  speech of Ranjith Perera at the media briefing can be viewed via the video footage hereunder for the benefit of IGP Poojitha , Media organizations suffering from cancerous growths , the media scoundrels and the media coolies who cannot sift truth from the untruths . If these media organizations after listening to the complete speech   are true to their conscience must ask pardon from Ranjith Perera
