According to many sources it is a abduction.He was the main opposition candidate who was said to have won the Presidential Election 2010 in Sri Lanka but some Ruling Party members had altered the results it seems, in order for their ruling party candidate to further be in power.This has become thrue with the abduction of General Sarath Fonseka.
This is against both common law and military law acoording to well known lawyers in Sri Lanka.Also the funny side is that,if he is taken due to military law he should be kept at some Army building but now he is abducted and kept in a Nevy building.So this is thruly done in order to restrict General S F from signing the election pettion to be filed and to keep him away from contesting the upcoming General Election.
The most respected Mallwatte thero and Asgiri thero condemed the incident and criticized the responsible people for the abduction.
Also the massive protest against the abduction of General Sarath Fonseka was attacked by thugs of government infront of the police(they were protecting the thugs).When the protesters some how managed to chase away the around 30 -50 thugs who came,the police started to chase the protesters in which the police were unsuccessfull as the protesters did not leave the place.
Also their had being protests in all over the country and protests held in Ampara, Kaluthara , Galle,Matara and some other places had being attacked with tear gas by police(is this the so called democracy?).
Following pictures shows the protest against the abduction of General Sarath Fonseka (Second picture shows Anoma Fonseka[Wife of General SF] speaking to media personels. Somawansha Amarasinghe[Leader of JVP] , Kabir Hasheem(UNP), Thissa Attanayake(UNP), Ravi Karunanayake (UNP) and Dayasiri Jayasekara are also in the picture)
Following pictures shows how thugs attacked and how police protected them from protesters.
So is this the begining for another period of bloodshed like in 1971 and 1988?Will wait and see.
