Sri Lanka’s General Fonseka goes on trial next week

Updated - 12/3/2010 - bbc.co.uk.

 

The Sri Lankan military has announced it is putting defeated presidential candidate and former army chief Gen Sarath Fonseka on trial next week.

The general faces court martial proceedings on charges of engaging in politics while in uniform and also for breaking army procurement rules.

Gen Fonseka was arrested after he lost January’s election to the incumbent President, Mahinda Rajapaksa.

He denies any wrongdoing and intends to stand in April’s parliamentary poll.

But it is not clear whether he would be able to contest the election if he were found guilty of any of the charges.

Proceedings are set to start on Tuesday 16 March at the naval complex were he is being detained.
