If the attack on HNDA students had taken place during the past government, no doubt some would try to make the former Defence Secretary accountable for the violent incident, Colombo District Parliamentarian Udaya Gammanpila says.


The observation was made at a press conference held in Colombo this morning (02).


He also severely condemned the attack on the students who were protesting near the University Grants Commission (UGC) last week.


Gammanpila also went into say he was told that there is a move to arrest him by a special police team within the next few days. “A special unit of the police HQ is preparing to arrest me on the allegations that I created forged documents during the last election, according to a reliable polce source,” he added.
