The Hon. Ananda Wijepala
Ananda Wijepala cautioned that images circulating online may be AI-generated and should not be treated as factual without verification. He clarified that he had referred to “some politicians” rather than specific Opposition parties in relation to the Middeniya case, and said the Government’s statements are based on police investigations rather than unverified social media claims.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, some images circulating may be AI-generated; do not assume all media content is factual. Regarding claims I referred to specific Opposition parties, I said “some politicians.” Many details on the Middeniya case circulate on social media; I cannot validate all. Our statements are based on police investigations.
