Factions that Incited Violence Re-emerge with the Maroon Shawl

Following last week’s parliamentary debate on Black July—the tragic event that branded Sri Lanka as a savage state in the eyes of the world—former Chief Justice Sarath Nanda Silva has re-entered the political spotlight, offering distorted interpretations of the judiciary.
In late 2014, Sarath Nanda Silva publicly declared that Mahinda Rajapaksa should have been given a prison sentence regarding the “Helping Hambantota” financial fraud case, and apologized to the nation for failing to do so. Now, he has stepped forward once again to provide alternative, distorted interpretations regarding the court-imposed prison sentence on Ven. Galagodaaththe Gnanasara Thero.
A wide range of points were presented during the parliamentary debate on Black July, and a video segment featuring a teledrama and the film Sarungala, produced around this destruction, is appended below.
