Sri Lanka must vote to ensure 'war victory' maintained says Rajapaksa

An overseas LTTE network was working against Sri Lankan interests, Mahinda Rajapaksa told crowds at an election rally in the south of the island.

Urging the public to vote for the ruling coalition, the Sir Lankan president said that the ‘victory’ achieved at the end of the war would be maintained following the election, reports the Colombo Gazette.

Rajapaksa added that people in Sri Lanka needed to continue to fight against terrorism and ensure that the LTTE does not raise its head in Sri Lanka again.
