Mr. Sajith Premadasa, the leader of the opposition, said that he is questioning the actions taken against the Rajapaksas and those gangsters who took up state violence on May 9th.
Instead, the opposition leader said that what the government is doing is showing the brutality of the state by arresting artists like Damita Abeyratne and said that such violence cannot be tolerated at all.
The opposition leader, who went today (10) to check on the well-being of veteran actress Damita Abeyratne, who is detained in Welikada prison, then addressed the media and said this.
The opposition leader said that neither the government nor anyone can violate the right to advocate for a democratic opinion that they believe in and they cannot allow the violation of the basic rights of the people at all.
