Defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajaksa has categorically stated that he has no association with the Bodu Bala Sena,
Speaking to Sri Lankan website Ada Derana, the Defence Secretary said, "I have no affiliation with the Bodu Bala Sena(BBS) and I have never assisted them. Those with narrow political motives try to insinuate that he is behind every problem that surfaces between groups," the Defence Secretary said.
"There are certain groups who are trying to create chaos in Sri Lanka at a time the country is facing questions about human rights at the UNHRC. I have tirelessly worked toward bringing peace to Sri Lanka and will not stand idle while people try to disrupt that peace," he said.
