Wife of missing cartoonist Prageeth Eknaligoda claims that the Military intelligence is attempting to prevent details about their attempts to hide information from reaching the media.
She made this statement at a press briefing held on July 16.
On July 6 the magistrate is said to have ordered the Director of Intelligence to present himself in court. The lawyer representing the Army had requested the proceedings to be then held in the official office of the magistrate and not in open court claiming that it could be a threat to the lives of the army officers.
However, Ekneligoda says this is an attempt to hide information they have been asked to submit to the CID and to prevent that information from reaching the media.
