If some other incident happens based on this matter that will not be good for the country, he has told BBC Sandeshaya.

The defence ministry has consulted all relevant parties in this matter, he said.

The Navy’s report into the CM having placed a Navy officer into inconvenience has been handed over to the president, and his advice is awaited, Hettiarachchi said.

Meanwhile, the prime minister has told both the Navy and the CM not to make any comment to the media until the president took a decision.
