(March 31, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) The Democratic National Front (DNF) yesterday alleged that the authorities were deliberately ignoring the health condition of the former Army Commander General (Retd.) Sarath Fonseka by refusing proper medical treatment. Fonseka’s wife Anoma told a press briefing in Colombo earlier today that her husband was badly in need of specialists to attend to him owing to the sensitive nature of his ailments.
But instead of providing a specialist the authorities have offered the services of a navy doctor and this was inadequate”, Mrs. Fonseka alleged.
She added that the authorities were even ignoring a court ruling that allowed the former army commander access to proper medical treatment which includes specialists, etc.
Military spokesperson Major General Prasad Samarasinghe refuted the allegations saying that proper medical treatment was being given to the former army Commander and that there was no cause for anyone to be alarmed.
He added that military doctors who have examined the former Army Commander have submitted that he was in good health, and the matter stops there.
