(Lanka-e-News -03.June.2015, 11.45PM) The ‘Randiva’ newspaper that was run by Ravi Wijeratne a casino mudalali and a disgraceful stooge of Mahinda Rajapakse was closed down with effect from last Sunday (31) , based on reports. Miinister Mangala Samaraweera ‘s former secretary Ruwan Ferdinands was appointed as the Director of its editorial board prior to its closure.
Under Ruwan Gunawardena as the director of the editorial board , Deepthi Kumara Gunaratne was appointed as the chief editor of the newspaper. Gunaratne was the leader of the Peratugami party which commenced under the name of ‘X ‘team, and Saman Jayakody who was the editor of the news paper was subsequently marginalized. The other leaders of the Peratugami party who protested against Gunaratne for taking over the chief editor post of a newspaper of a casino Mudalalali finally chased him out from the Peratugami party.
Under the new administration of ‘Randiva’ , it was Claude gurubewila who became the chief executive officer (CEO). Claude gurubewila is one who became notorious under the Rajapakse regime because of his monumental financial frauds . By functioning as the CEO of the VFM broadcasting channel he became infamously famous under the Rajapakse regime which promoted illicit ethanol import business with ex minister Johnston Fernando heading the illegal operations.
Claude the fraud is now facing charges in the huge Sathosa cash embezzlement for his direct involvements.
As always with the crooked Rajapakse administration, the Rajapakse crooked cronies and stooges were allowed to indulge in any racket to the detriment of the country provided they propped and promoted the Rajapakses in their sinister and evil programs. Claude the notorious fraud too made hay while the sun shone with Rajapakse backing while using the VFM sordid media channel to attack and castigate bitterly the politicos and persons who were antagonistic to the Rajapakses via various programs.
The Randiva’ newspaper service was closed on the 31 st of May , and about 37 employees were not paid the May salary when terminating their services, let alone the three months compensation that should be paid to an employee in such circumstances under the labor rules and regulations , thereby flagrantly violating the laws.
Meanwhile, the newspaper was closed down because Ravi Wijeratne the casino Mudalali wanted that to happen. Nevertheless , under the government of good governance of president Maithripala , sordid and low grade media establishments are currently facing grave threats. Ravi Wijeratne on the other hand characterized by perfidious and low breed traits has decided to meet this challenge. Already , under ex minister Dallas Alahaperuma various methodologies are being resorted to in order to combat these threats.
Ruwan Ferdinands and ‘Claude the fraud’ are now taking steps to put out another newspaper under the name of ‘Nijabima’ .Prabath Weeraratne who calls himself as a chief of the new administration revealed to Lanka e news.
