Retired Major General Aruna Jayasekara says the government will not respond to the Catholic Church’s statement that his position as Deputy Minister is an obstacle to the investigation into the Easter attacks.
Further commenting, he says that he will not influence the investigation into the Easter attacks and therefore has no intention of resigning from the position of Deputy Minister.
Major General Aruna Jayasekara was the Commander of the Eastern Province at the time of the 2019 Easter attacks.
