(Srilankamirror) – IUSF convener Sanjeewa Bandara has rubbished the claim by the government that bombs and weapons had been found from universities. He told ‘Srilankamirror’ that the government was trying to convince society that university students were resorting to terrorist acts and to justify military and police interventions in universities.
He was responding to reports that several hand grenades were found from Sri Jayewardenepura University.
He said the government had fabricated this, which is not for the first time, to obtain society’s acceptance to repress university students who fight for free education.
Mr. Bandara asked the people not to be misled by these falsehoods.
