Fonseka arrested



COLOMBO, February 8 (Reuters): Sri Lanka arrested former army commander and losing presidential candidate General Sarath Fonseka at his office on Monday night, witnesses said. “He was dragged away in a very disgraceful manner in front of our own eyes,” Sri Lanka Muslim Congress leader Rauff Hakeem told Reuters. One of Fonseka’s security officers, I.P. Herath, confirmed the account of Fonseka’s arrest by military police. The government had no immediate comment on the arrest.
