In his diatribe, Father Gamini relied heavily on hearsay and unsubstantiated claims to mask his incapacity to confront the unvarnished truth. His evident distress following the officer’s revelations in Parliament only serves to underscore the gravity of his actions. Father Gamini’s behaviour is not only an attempt to deceive society but also a deliberate character assassination of an official who has never been found culpable by any court or commission. This is not only an egregious misjudgment but also a barbaric assault on the fundamental rights of a fellow human.\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003EConsider this in a straightforward analogy: Suppose one of Father Cyril Gamini’s adversaries disseminated a false statement about him, alleging that he spent a night in police custody due to illegal activities and that he solicited high-ranking police officers and politicians to extricate him from the situation. Further, it is claimed that he berated police officers who helped him during a meeting and demanded their immediate dismissal. Such slander unquestionably tarnishes his reputation. No doubt. Viewing the accusations against Mr. Prasanna Alwis in this light, Father Gamini’s outburst appears not only outrageous but also morally reprehensible. His ire stems from the fact that this officer presented verifiable data on the Easter attack, dismantling the conspiracy woven by a small faction, of which Father Cyril Gamini is a part.\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003ELet us revisit the case of Lasantha Wickramatunga’s assassination. In the aftermath of Mr. Wickramatunga’s assassination, it was Prasanna Alwis, not the now-prominent Nishantha Silva, who unearthed crucial information. Officer Alwis meticulously unravelled the details of the crime, including the transactions linked to the SIM cards purportedly used by the alleged assailants. In 2010, he played a pivotal role in exonerating 18 individuals falsely accused in the case. By 2015, he had removed those within the Terrorism Investigation Division implicated in tampering with evidence. Why was no action taken against him until 2019, following his dismissal?\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003EWhile Nishantha Silva and a few others garnered media attention for their involvement in criminal investigations, it was officers like Prasanna Alwis who bore the brunt of the groundwork. They did not flee the country or encroach upon the investigations of their colleagues. Father Cyril Gamini should refrain from maligning officials who stand unaccused and instead, muster the courage to confront the unadulterated truth, allowing his convictions to stand or fall on their own merits.\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003EFurthermore, Father Gamini’s press conference contained a blatant falsehood concerning Senior Deputy Inspector General of Police Nilantha Jayawardena.
