Sirisena Launches Autobiography Without Easter Attack Details

News Today: Former President Sirisena launches autobiography, no Easter attack details included

Former President Maithripala Sirisena recently announced the launch of his autobiography, sparking interest and controversy. Speaking to reporters, Sirisena addressed criticisms regarding the absence of details about the tragic Easter Sunday attacks in the book. Critics had expected the former president to cover the sensitive incident, which occurred under his leadership in April 2019. However, Sirisena stated that the book does not include any information about the attacks, emphasizing that his autobiography focuses on his political journey and personal experiences.

He also accused certain individuals of attempting to discredit his legacy by stirring controversy over the book’s contents. The omission of the Easter Sunday attacks is likely to fuel further discussions in the media and public forums, but Sirisena stood firm in his decision, concluding that the attacks were deliberately excluded from his narrative.

As the autobiography is now available to the public, it will provide readers with insights into Sirisena’s life, though the absence of information on one of Sri Lanka’s most tragic events remains a talking point.
