In a letter addressed to the President of All Ceylon Jamiyyathul Ulama (ACJU), As-Sheikh Rizwe Mufthi, the State Ministry of Defence has refuted claims made by Rizwe Mufthi at the all-religious leaders’ meeting held under the patronage of President Maithripala Sirisena on April 26.
The Secretary to the State Ministry of Defence, N.K.G.K. Nammawatta refuted the claim made by President of ACJU that the latter had handed over all information and documents regarding the IS-affiliated Islamist extremists in Sri Lanka to State Minister of Defence Ruwan Wijewardene in 2015.
The State Ministry of Defence has urged As-Sheikh Rizwe Mufthi to rectify “this misleading and misrepresentation of facts” and emphasized that legal action would be taken against him if he fails to comply.
