Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 It is in the Hansard; it is on record. What you said is that the reason for the Magistrate’s transfer was not anything else but an order to arrest Minister Wasantha Samarasinghe. That is very clear. If not, take the mike now and say it is not so.
