Ranil complains to IGP over forged agreement letter

December 23, 2014   04:47 pm

Opposition Leader Ranil Wickramasinghe has urged the IGP to initiate an investigation with respect to an agreement letter, in which it says it was signed between him and the Common Candidate, which Health Minister Tissa Attanayake displayed at a recent press conference held in Colombo.

In a letter sent to the IGP, Wickramasinghe said that he has never signed such agreement with Common Candidate Maithripala Sirisena, and accused Minister Attanayake of forging his signature and distributing the document at the press conference held on 22 December.

At the press conference, the Health Minister alleged in addition to the agreements reached with various political parties and organizations in public, Maithripala Sirisena has also signed a secret agreement with the Opposition Leader which contains several terms that could be harmful to the country.

The United National Party (UNP) too charged that the alleged secret agreement was a fake one.
