No ordinary book launch View(s):My dear Gammanpila,I am writing to congratulate you on the recent launch of your book which you claim is about searching for the ‘mastermind’ of the Easter Sunday terror attacks 7 years ago. If that is your yardstick, then the book launch was a massive success, even though the book itself was obviously a massive disappointment. You titled the book ‘In search of the Easter attacks mastermind’, creating the impression of writing a whodunnit. After repeatedly lambasting the Rajapaksas in parliament over the Easter attacks, no one in their right senses would expect him to be in that audience. In the history of book launches, no politician has done more harm to himself than what Sajith did that day by attending your launch.
