Jun 30, Colombo: Sri Lanka government coalition party National Freedom Front (NFF) leader and Minister of Housing and Construction Wimal Weerawansa vowed today to launch a fast unto death unless the panel advised by the United Nations Secretary-General to advise him on Sri Lanka is not dissolved.

Addressing a press conference in Colombo today, Weerawansa said that discussions are underway with national organizations in this regard.

Weerawansa also said that the appointment of the advisory panel should not be perceived as a simple act as it could be followed by the appointment of an investigation committee to look into allegations of violations of human rights and war crimes.

This would eventually lead to the leaders and war heroes of Sri Lanka produced before an international court of justice, he added.

Weerawansa also warned the UN that a protest would be held before the UN office of Colombo.
