The army security personnel withdrawn from Mahinda's security replaced by STF personnel

The army security that was provided to the former president Mahinda Rajapaksa's security unit had been withdrawn.Instead for the withdrawn army personnel trained STF police personnel have been provided and hence there is no change in the number of the security personnel.

Brigadier Jayanath Jayaweera had added this and said that those who were replaced are skilled STF personnel who had training in the security of the VIP's.

However the media spokesman for the media unit of the former president Rohan Weliwita had said that he is not happy about providing  the STF personnel for his security saying they are not trained personnel.
