-To wear their sarong and saree too soldiers had to do for them..!
(Lanka-e-News -10.July.2016, 11.30PM) Basil Rajapakse who speaks most vociferously for and on behalf of the forces and about their honor, is the same base individual during his tenure of office as minister of economic development under the nefarious decade had treated 200 members of the forces and the police who were detailed for his official duties most dishonorably ,disdainfully and insolently , like how dogs on the streets are treated. This was revealed before the Presidential Commission (PRECIFAC).
It was disclosed that these soldiers and police officers were employed for his security , driving, cooking, dressing the sarong meticulously of their ‘ boss’, massaging , cleaning the latrines and toilets for his wife , and of course serving them like slaves and toadying to them.
There were 84 members of the army , 64 members of the Navy, 47 police officers ,10 female members of the Navy in the contingent that served Basil and his spouse.
The women officers of the Navy were employed to clean the toilets of Pushpa Rajapakse ( Basil’s wife). These officers had to discharge unofficial duties such as flush the commode before Pushpa uses the toilet , pin her saree meticulously , carry her hand bag wherever she goes, dab and remove her perspiration ,wipe her face with tissue paper every now and then ,and so forth . These details were graphically revealed before the Commission.
Basil had detailed for duty 6 Naval officers to look after his dogs and 18 Naval officers to carry out tasks in the kitchen. 2 Naval officers were entrusted with looking after the duties in his kitchen of his house in America. Kneeling down as though to worship in order to tie his sarong and to help him wear his waist belt were also their degrading duties. In addition there were five members of the Naval forces serving as drivers in his contingent.
If the sarong is not tied for Basil according to his whim and wishes , the Naval soldier performing that duty is kicked in his face brutally and beaten while that soldier was still in kneeling down position , as revealed by a soldier via a confession made before the Commission.
Among the 84 members of the army , except a few of them detailed for personal trips and the 20 drivers , all others had been deployed for security purposes.
All the police personnel are from the ministerial security division , although only 6 police personnel of the ministerial division can be deployed ,Basil however abusing his powers had employed 47 of them , according to what was revealed before the Commission.
The two members of the Naval Force who were taken to discharge kitchen duties in America had been dispatched not on ordinary passports , rather on Diplomatic passports . Moreover they have been taken across under the pretext that they were going to work in the park of the house of the SL ambassador in America !
In addition , Basil has got down two most expensive dogs costing Rs. 450,000.00 from America and India , and the routine needs of those dogs had to be looked after by Naval soldiers . Besides , a special room was allocated for those dogs with air conditioning comforts , it came to light.
All these irregularities and abuses had been committed under a captain of the Navy who was the leader. Though complaints were made to the higher ups of the Navy regarding the assaults launched by Basil when the waist belt and sarong of his are being worn for him by the soldiers , but because the higher ups were in mortal fear of the Rajapakses they pretended not to hear, it was disclosed.
In addition Basil has been ruthlessly assaulting any officer of the Navy too who performed duties in a manner that displeased him.
Basil’s wife Pushpa Rajapakse too had employed the women soldiers of the Navy for her security , to carry her hand bags wherever she went , to wipe out the perspiration as soon as it exudes , to pin and arrange the saree when worn , and in other degrading menial duties.
The PRECIFAC has taken steps to file action against Basil and his wife in connection with several charges leveled against them including treating the staff in the government service like slaves; misuse of state funds; and several others.
The PRECIFAC has recorded statements of a number of members of the three armed forces and the Police . What Lanka e news has revealed hereinbefore are information based on statements which have been duly confirmed .
In the light of the above details , clearly the Rajapakses who are best noted for shedding crocodile tears, have while singing praises for the forces been treating them most shabbily and disdainfully , and at the same time assaulting and using them as their slaves.
In the circumstances , even the worst punishment decided by God towards these political ‘animals’ alias hypocritical rascals alias shameless scoundrels is not enough.

These Rajapakse gang needs to be imprisoned with hard labour. None of them should be spared. The service personnel (armed forces and police) who were humiliated need to be compensated for psychological damage inflicted with the money collected from selling Rajapkse property and liquidating their bank accounts all over the world. Service Chiefs who kept silent in spite of complaints from their men and women who were abused by these thugs should be demoted to the lowest ranks in their respective services.

Are all these allegations true? really? Unbelievable! If these are truths and nothing but truths, please help me Budhu Ammo, because there are two vital duties Basil has forgotten to delegate to his retinue of domestic aides. For example, some previous fallen Roman emperors were known to have servants, with or without diplomatic passports attached to their sarongs to hold an intimate bod yorgan while the emperor was busy passing water because the emperor in question was too lazy. Secondly, why did Basil have to go to great lengths incurring huge expenditures to import dogs? He had only to turn to his two pet brothers to satisfy his canine needs!
