He said, “There was a huge controversy in the country during the last few days when the US government decided to subject him to an interrogation while he was visiting the US on a personal visit.
“However, we are now in a position to inform the House of some good news. General Sarath Fonseka has left the US last night around 11 p.m. after deciding not to respond to any question posed to him by the US government. He will return to the island around 4.45 a.m. tomorrow morning. The US government was to question him today evening. We would like to say that this House is grateful to General Sarath Fonseka for deciding to protect the country’s integrity by not responding to questions posed by the US government.”
