Sri Lanka refutes BBC Sandeshaya report
Sri Lankan Ministry of External Affairs today refuted a BBC Sandesaya report about the Sri Lankan LLRC Commission. The Ministry said in a statement that the report carried by the ‘BBCSinhala Sandeshaya’ website with the dateline of 24th December 2010 under the caption “Sri Lanka War Panel ‘pro-LTTE’”, is a complete fabrication.
“The above mentioned headline of the report is based on a purported conversation between Prof. G.L. Peiris, Minister of External Affairs
of Sri Lanka and Dr. Gunadasa Amarasekara, Chairman of the Patriotic National Movement (PNM)” the statement said.
‘The Ministry of External Affairs wishes to emphasize in this regard that Dr. Amarasekara who has been spoken to, confirms that no such conversation took place.
The statement said that the Ministry of External Affairs would be taking up the matter with the British Foreign Office and the management of the BBC, this serious instance of a gross departure from the ethics of responsible reportage’, the statement said.

BBC overseas service is now in the hands of the extremist diaspora LTTE, who funds daily disinformation dissemination through it to the world, in all 3 languages of SL. It is a valuable tool for them in their arsenal. The British authorites encourage it against the GOSL. BBC has no ethical standards now in disseminating such fabricated stories fed to them daily by the diaspora extremist Tamils. Would the British government have acceded to it if BBC disseminated daily propaganda against the imperial West in support of Al Qaeda and the Taliban or any other extremist militant Islamic organisation in Britain? This shows the double standards of Britain. LTTE is a proscribed organisation in Britain in paper only. The British government allows LTTE to function under a different name and collect funds, and plot miltant terrorist acts against SL. The BBC is now an acronym for Boru Begal Corporation, an arm of the Tamilnet.
This is empty rhetoric of RW and the UNP. SP has formed his separate group to contest the old guard for leadership of the party. The fight goes on, internecine blood shed. SP is no better than RW. He robbed Buddhist shrines and ancient archeological Buddhist sites of treasures and holy relics. He has no conscience. He is now strutting forward with small handouts to Buddhist temples in the South to appear to be benefactor, and brags about it. This brat’s record stands out as a sore thumb, of his duplicity and immoral character. His father RP was a traitor as he funded LTTE terrorism with arms and cash donations. When LTTE brutally massacred 600 STF soldiers who surrendered on orders of RP he did nothing. When the muslis worshippers were brutally massacred in a Baticaloa mosque, RP was silent. Eventually, VP made RP ‘resign permanenly’ using a Muslim suicide bomber. The irony of it! SP should never be allowed to be the UNP leader nor should the other traitors RK,JJ, KJ etc. They are all corrupt men in the hands of the diaspora LTTE and the imperial West. They are bereft of patriotism. They are servile pariah dogs of the imperial West and the diaspora LTTE.
Yes Mr.N.D.you are right,we all srilanken to boycot the bbc,because their the biggerst terrorist in the world.As a news Chanal they have to be fair,but they dont,because as you said they all are corruptted inclusive all polititions from the hands of the Tamil tigers.
The best way to deal with this issue to request Dr GA to tell us the truth about the purported conversation with the black haired professori.
