Mr. President of Sri Lanka, Mahinda Rajapaksa

 

Minister of Higher Education

 

Sri Lanka Veterinarian Council

 

Vice Chancellor of Peradeniya University, Prof. H Abeygunawardene

 

 

Dear Sirs,

 

it has come to my notice that two veterinarians of your university, Prof.

Jayanthe Rajapakse and Dr. Wasantha Kumara, have disgraced themselves by

adopting dogs from the KACPAW animal shelter under false pretenses and having

subjected these animals to invasive, and in one case fatal surgical procedures

at your institution.

 

These, at the time of adoption - healthy - animals were cruelly mutilated, and

of one, the dog POLLY (http://www.canadianvoiceforanimals.org/SRILANKA.html),

all that is left is a plastic bag with dismembered body parts ...

Whether or not the other two will survive what has been done to them is as yet

questionable.

 

What happened here is horrendous, and so very typical of modern so-called

science and those who practise it. The letter sent by Prof. Jayanthe Rajapakse

to Smt. Maneka Gandhi (letter and reply below) says it all: he is not in the

least aware or willing to accept that he has done anything wrong - on the

contrary, he goes on to state his " international reputation " as a scientist and

the valuable service - he believes - he renders to his country by acts such as

this ...

 

As Smt. Gandhi points out in her letter, there are indeed parallels to Nazi

Germany and what " scientists " did then to helpless Humans in the mistaken belief

of furthering medical advancement - abusing their position and funds allotted to

them to sadistically butcher the indivuals placed at their mercy.

Being a German myself I know enough about what atrocities took place in my

country in that time - and time and time again it strikes me how little the

world has changed since then.

People like Prof. Rajapakse have interited the unholy spirit of monsters like

Dr. Mengele, and still seek out the most defenseless to conduct their twisted

science on: Animals.

 

There is NOTHING to be proud of here. This person shames the institution he

works for, and all scientific community. At least the part that has no need to

resort to such means to further the scientific cause ....

 

I therefore respectfully ask that you consider permanently removing Prof.

Jayanthe Rajapakse and Dr. Wasantha Kumara - as his collaborator - from their

positions and a revoking of their licenses.

 

 

Respectfully yours,

Dear Prof. Rajapakse

 

 

I have received your mails along with your explanation and biodata. I am afraid

they make no sense. You are not been targeted because of your national and

international image , which is certainly not as credible as you would like to

believe. You are being taken to task because you performed acts of unbelievable

cruelty on dogs that you had procured illegally and under false pretences. The

method of surgery was not just brutal but careless , as it evidenced by the

gauze that you left behind in one dog.

None of the organs you removed would have helped you in your so called research

on diabetes which I am surprised you are doing since you are a professor in

parasitology.

All you are is a person who has been a government servant and has repeatedly

taken advantage of his university and immunity in unnecessary and brutal

operations under the guise of research. It is often the case with mediocre

people that they hide behind papers that are neither original nor particularly

outstanding in order to justify their promotions. It is a pity that you did not

apply the standard that most medical doctors have to learn before they start

practice - First do no harm.

I do not know whether you will get the punishment you deserve because no doubt

you will try and bully your way through this and falsely accuse other people of

misrepresenting facts. But the actual fact is : you have been slaughtering dogs

for a long time now and this is the first time you have been caught and your "

research " exposed for what it is: simply an attempt to continue to get promoted

and respected by the state by taking the lives of animals without any thought or

humanity. There is a parallel to this in the Germany of the 40s when it happened

to helpless people as well by the state. I have no doubt that you too will try

and use the might of the state to get away.

If you really want to atone for what you done - which I doubt as your letter

shows no remorse and continues to justify your action by repeating, ad nauseum ,

about your great services to your country and the world - I would suggest that

you resign and go and follow the spirit of the Buddha whose foremost tenet was

not to kill. You have not done research on these dogs - you have simply killed

and killed and killed. Such is the way of the world that you have been

repeatedly rewarded for doing what we look down on in slaughterhouses. Please do

not believe that you have " brought grace " to Sri lanka. This is a land of

supreme grace and dignity and you have merely shamed her by your actions

 

 

Yours sincerely

Dear Madam,

 

 

I have noticed that you have received some emails or letter regarding the

llegation against inhumane surgery.

 

Herewith I am enclosing my explanation regarding this matter as your well known

animal welfarist as well as well ex Minister of Environment , Social Welfare

and Culture in our closer country.

 

Perhaps this allegation came to me because I am well known researcher in

nationally and internationally. Anyway I would like to send these two

attachments to you for your consideration regarding the this matter and also my

service to the country and globally.

 

That is why this letter they want to send all international bodies before making

any judgment or inquiries. Therefore I though to send this email with

attachments for your kind judgement However after completed inquiry in our

Veterinary council as well as University level I would like to inform you their

decisions.

 

 

Yours sincerely

 

Jayanthe
