The IGP who was disillusioned with the illegal ousting of the chief Justice (CJ) had been trying to maintain his natural self respect when confronting issues in the process of enforcement of the law . Recently in a police communiqué it was confirmed that the IGP intervened on behalf of the DIG Latheef to safeguard the police dignity. When goons of the district politico appear and attack the police officers in uniform until they bleed , how can a DIG who has self respect remain silent ? When such a DIG is being put to the guillotine on that same issue , how can the IGP who has self respect remain silent ? This was precisely why IGP has come forward on Latheef’s behalf.To the Rajapakse regime which considers laws and truth as thorns in its side , obviously felt uncomfortable like a fish bone had got stuck in its throat when the IGP came forward on behalf of Latheef. One other incident that had infuriated the barbaric regime was the failure of the IGP to follow the instructions given to him to deploy the STF and drive away the lawyers who were arriving for the recent Bar Association elections . When senior DIG Anura Senanayake well and widely known as an unscrupulous stooge of the regime , as always had tried to carry out the regime’s sordid orders , the IGP had told the police chiefs that if they act unlawfully they will have to face the consequences individually themselves. Owing to this the regime’s attempts to foil the elections had foundered. |
