Sri Lanka’s parliament erupted into a brawl after Sri Lanka’s former army chief claimed that a previous bomb attack that had been blamed on the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) was actually staged-managed by Sri Lanka’s defence secretary at the time.
Soon after the attack, the Sri Lankan government, withdrawing from the internationally supported ceasefire and peace talks, called on Norwegian peace facilitators to halt communication with the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam.
Sri Lanka’s former army chief and current minister Sarath Fonseka lead Sri Lanka’s army in the brutal onslaught against the LTTE that has now been found by the UN to have likely involved mass violations of international and humanitarian law in the final stages.
In response to the allegations, Sri Lanka’s parliament erupted into a brawl with some MPs being injured.
