Sinhala Ravaya files complaint against Ranil to anti-terror police

The Sinhala group, Sinhala Ravaya, filed a complaint with the Terrorism Investigation Department against the prime minister, Ranil Wickremasinghe, on Friday, over his decision to release a stock of Indian magazines stopped by customs featuring the LTTE leader, Vellupillai Prabhakaran.

"His order to release the magazine was a threat to national security. We want police to investigate," the Buddhist monk and general secretary of the Sinhala Ravaya, Madille Pannaloka was quoted by PTI as saying.

The magazine, named 'Frontline', carried a 1987 interview with Mr Prabhakaran.
