SLFP Central Committee decides to expel AHM Fowzie
The Central Committee of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party has decided to expel United People’s Freedom Alliance Parliamentarian A.H.M Fowzie from party membership.
Party General Secretary MP Dayasiri Jayasekara said the decision was reached during a Central Committee meeting held last evening.
MP Jayasekara said the Secretary-General of Parliament and the Chairman of the Election Commission have been informed of the decision.
MP Jayasekara explained that a decision was reached against MP Fowzie because he failed to appear for the disciplinary inquiry and therefore, a unanimous decision was reached to expel him.
The MP further noted that several Pradeshiya Sabha members were also expelled from the party, adding that a decision on Vijith Wijayamuni de Zoysa will be reached in future.
On a separate note in response to questions by media as to whether SLFPers will receive Cabinet portfolios, the MP said they are not aware of any such developments, adding however it will only be decided today following discussions between the President and former President.

Yo, aren’t you the smelly Uooru-meeya who said that the only way to stop Gota, is to kill him? I know you denied saying it, but the sound-cuts from your recent pro-Sajiit/Ponil/Mongreli-Pentouse-fat-cat elections platform circulating in www appear to say otherwise. Either way, I hope the AG files a charge against you and arrest you for threatening an election candidate with death – which I think should throw you in Jail for at least 10 years? Of course, you say you are innocent…if so you should be able to prove it in Court.
Moral of the story: This type of alleged death-threat against any elections candidate, be it Prez election, Parliamentary election, PS election, or even municipal elections must be taken with all due seriousness as we pride ourselves to be one of the oldest democracies in Asia.
