“Sri Lanka’s former army chief and defeated presidential candidate Sarath Fonseka is to be court-martialled, officials said Tuesday, a day after he was hauled away from his office by armed troops. Hours before his dramatic arrest, Fonseka told reporters that he was willing to face any international probe into alleged war crimes committed by Sri Lankan troops in last year’s final stages of conflict with Tamil Tiger rebels. Fonseka has been moved to an undisclosed military establishment ahead of disciplinary proceedings, a military official said.” (02/09/10) Link: http://tinyurl.com/ylcxoey Filed under: RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
