“We hit them, they constructed bunkers; they hit us, we constructed bunkers”, he went on to say.
Former president Mahinda Rajapaksa said today that his government had to build a safety bunker under President’s House in Fort to shield VIPs from potential LTTE air strikes.
Answering questions raised by media after an event at Abhayarama Temple in Colombo, Rajapaksa said that the construction was constructed years ago during the war. Pointing out that the LTTE used to launch air strikes during the latter years of the war, Rajapaksa said that he received advice to get a bunker constructed.
Adding further, the former President asserted that it was built during the war time owing to security reasons. He also pointed out that the Security Council met at President’s House. The bunker was constructed so that the meetings could be held even at a time of an LTTE airstrike, he claimed.
“There is one at the Temple Trees as well. These facts should not be revealed due to security matters,” he added.
